how to deal with nanny at home 24Irrational Number Well, I think it's all negotiable in my book. It's perfectly reasonable to want a nanny who is *also* experienced with child development...
First of all, why are you going on maternity leave so early? Since you know your delivery date, you could of saved more of your maternity leave for when the baby is actually here (just my opinion of course).
Not an issue. Doesn't relate to her caring for your son.
None of your business. If she can see your son and care for him in a safe manner, it shouldn't matter to you if she wears her glbuttes or not.
As long as your son is well cared for, loved and interacted with, why does it matter if she likes to read or not? If you're wanting an educator, then you don't need a nanny. Nannys are there to care for the child. As far as the therapy, that is your concern, not hers. If there are exercises you would like her to do, then teach her and ask her to do some of those during the day while she is there. I think you are asking way too much of your nanny. Her whole purpose is to make sure your son is well cared for while you work and is not in any danger.
Not a huge issue. Do you give him plenty of opportunities during the evening and weekends to feed himself? Does your son eat well when your nanny feeds him? If he does, then so be it.

Cut the cords so it is not an issue. Child-proof your home to your expectations. Your nanny should not have that much power in your home. If you don't child-proof it, your nanny shouldn't be expected to do the job for you. The nanny should know basic safety measures, so I will give you that.
My smell is lousy. Oh well. Does your son have frequent diaper rashes as a result of being in a diaper a few extra minutes? She is compensating by checking a lot, sometimes they are missed. Well, I've missed a diaper or two in the many years my three kids were in diapers. It's not the end of the world.
There's your answer. She does the things she is supposed to do. I think you need to realign what you expect of a nanny. The thing is, she is doing her job, but she is not doing the nitty gritty things that is your job. She shouldn't be expected to educate your son, you should. -- Sue (mom to three girls)
