The Damons Are Carefree In The Caribbean

Matt Damon was spotted vacationing with his family at an exclusive resort in the Caribbean. Damon was seen playing with daughter Isabella, 2 1/2, whilst wife Luciana and their nanny kept 5-month-old baby Gia Zavala in the shade. Not pictured is 9-year-old big sister Alexia - Luciana’s daughter from a previous relationship.

The 38-year-old actor, screenwriter and producer describes himself as an overly cautious father: "At my house they have a nickname for me. They call me Red Alert. If any of the kids go near anything dangerous, I quickly say, 'Is she touching that? Watch out for that!'"

And yet another celebrity family with and overweight, black nanny:-(
It’s such a cliché. Do they put that on the list when they’re hiring a nanny? (Just a pet peeve of mine, since I’m a young, blond averagely attractive nanny).

Sanja, it shouldn't matter what skin or hair colour a nanny has, nor if she's overweight or not. All that matters is that the parents trust her and that she is good with the kids.
From a certain point of view I understand what you're trying to say, that many white families have staff (not only nannies but also other help in the house) usually coming from another race or ethnicity while you don't see this often vice versa (at least that's what I read from your statement). But tooting your own horn like this and dissing the Damon's family nanny isn't helping to get your point across.

shirilicious -no that was NOT my point! And I wasn't 'tooting my horn' (don't know what that means) since I don't live in the US, so I could hardly work for them anyway.

I meant that many people seem to be afraid to hire a young, attractive nanny and ask the agency to send them only unattractive, older women, which makes it hard to find a well paying job in the filed.
It's like the richer the mother is the more afraid she is that the nanny is going to 'steal' her husband away (roles eyes), which no nanny worth her salt would do since it would bury her career.

This was not so much a comment on the Damons specifically as on the general state in ''nannyhood''. As I've said it's a pet peeve of mine.

so...sanja, if the agency chooses overweight unattractive nannies...then why specifically black ones?? i don't think your comment makes much since and you sort of contradicted the first with the second.

anyhow, this family is ADORABLE! love them

Sanja said:

Melanie -the 'black' part wasn't really the point (even though most celebrities have black or Hispanic nannies), but since the nanny in the picture is African American that was the way I described her.

BTW, where I live there aren't any black (or any other 'race' but caucasian) nannies so I really don't have an opinion on the fact that most white, rich celebrities have minorities as servants or hired help. That's a whole other issues and I'd rather not go into it here.
