Book 120: Wanted: Toddler's Personal Assistant by Stephanie Kiser

 I just finished Wanted: Toddler's Personal Assistant and I give it 👀👀👀. That's three stars, by the way!

This book was positioned as a fun tell-all about nannying for wealthy people, but it wasn't. Here is what I wrote on NetGalley: 

This book is a memoir of the author's time working as a nanny for very wealthy families in NYC and contrasting that with her own upbringing in a working class family. While the writing is fine, I kept feeling that Kiser wanted to be seen as the Stephanie Land of nannying, but neither her backstory nor her insights into the lives and challenges of her wealthy employees bring this book up to that level.
