當(dāng)下，越來(lái)越多的女性不再為撫養(yǎng)子女退出職場(chǎng)，給寶寶請(qǐng)一個(gè)好保姆是頭等大事。由于好保姆難尋，許多媽媽不禁動(dòng)起了挖鄰居家保姆墻角的心思。

With more working mothers than ever, nannies are in increasing demand. Finding the perfect nanny is no mean feat, which is why nanny poaching in the neighborhood is a surprisingly common problem amongst families seeking high quality childcare. To "poach" a nanny is to make a job offer to a nanny despite being fully aware that she’s employed by another family.
如今的職場(chǎng)媽媽比以往任何時(shí)候都多，市場(chǎng)上保姆的需求量越來(lái)越大。不過(guò)想找到一個(gè)完美的保姆并非易事，因此在追求高水準(zhǔn)兒童看護(hù)服務(wù)的家庭之間，挖鄰居保姆墻腳成了很常見(jiàn)的問(wèn)題。“挖”保姆就是在明知一名保姆已經(jīng)被別家雇傭的情況下，仍然邀請(qǐng)對(duì)方為自己工作。

For example:

Forget friendship or the sisterhood: great childcare trumps all allegiances. Nanny poaching is on the rise and neighborhoods have become battle zones where enemies vie for the best nanny.
友誼？姐妹情？都放一邊吧。優(yōu)質(zhì)的兒童看護(hù)勝過(guò)一切。挖保姆墻角的現(xiàn)象越來(lái)越多，社區(qū)已然成為仇敵之間爭(zhēng)奪最好的保姆的戰(zhàn)場(chǎng)。
