@dobydog2 Did you hire one at all ?

At what point did you remove your mods ? Does it happen on a fresh save that never had mods in as well ?

Good Luck

On a fresh save, here are the steps that caused my "endless nannies":

1) Hire a nanny or have a nanny hired recently.

2) Travel to a location other than home.

3) While away, <hard part / timing>, nanny calls you and asks advice on whether to get a new job. (This is part of the new neighborhood influence changes).

     3a) Tell them, "Yes, go for it" or whichever is the affirmative answer.

4) Travel home.

5) Every 30 seconds, a new nanny shows up at your door and bombards your house. "Hi! I'm...."

6) For added fun, set speed on 3x and watch your house be inundated with nannies.

 

To rectify:

1) Pause game.

2) Queue up the firing of all nannies. Yes, they all charge you.

3) Eventually all nannies leave.

@dobydog2I have somewhat the same issue. I fired one then two nannies showed up and it kept adding more. Still have that issue

@CharlieAxolotl That does sound more like the other issue you posted in. OP unfortunately never came back to clarify if they actually hired a Nanny or not.

Loads of people have this problem. You'd think by now they'd work in an easy way to get rid of them. I physically cannot get rid of them. I had 13 in the house. Even when fired them all more are showing up as they're leaving. Kill cheat just kills my sims instead of them. No way to just easily delete them. Can't cancel service. 

 

This is ruining my game. I'm failing to see the point in continuing to play or buying new expansions.

Just happened to me. Went out to the celebration center, came back and so many nanny's arrived and they still are. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4kI5vJL90gY

Re: [OPEN] Multiple nannies showing up

Happens to me when I've hired a nanny on the 50x50 lot in Wakaba. Can't figure out what triggers it. Sometimes they're fine and stick to the one nanny, then suddenly they'll start showing up endlessly. In my case cancelling the service and THEN getting rid of them (via dismiss, NOT fire) seems to work. I can make it move along faster with MCCC using the "make sim leave" cheat but only if they've been dismissed first, otherwise they just come back.

This happened to me and I could not get rid of the nannies fast enough. I did the listed by accident; hired a nanny and told them to go for a new job, left the lot then BAM! Never ending nannies. Vanilla game btw, I also had expansion packs: Vampires & Snowy Escape. I fixed this by loading a recover save as far back as I could then I canceled the maid and gardener (and after making sure all the doors were locked and he was off my immediate lawn) I dismissed the nanny, thankfully with no issue. Moving out of the lot does not appear to stop this error btw, maybe eviction? Hopes this helps! Embarrassed
