Robert De Niro's nanny might not think he's such a good fella.

Alexis Barry has sued the actor for more than $40,000 in unpaid overtime, saying he fired her after she threatened to quit..

According to the lawsuit filed in New York Supreme Court in Manhattan, Barry says she never got the 10 vacation days she was promised and ultimately worked more than 750 hours beyond the call of duty without compensation.

De Niro's rep said he couldn't comment because he hadn't seen a copy of the suit.

The Oscar winner and wife Grace Hightower have an 11-year-old son, Elliot.
