[quote=Anonymous]Agree with others that you just need to be upfront with your nanny that you support her. And follow through in front of your kids, too. Our nanny is a very gentle older woman and I did get the sense at first that she was worried when DD cried/screamed we would be upset (I think it's especially hard on nannies these days when so many parents are working at home). So DH and I made a point of letting her know several different times that we know that yelling/screaming/crying/tantrums are part of the deal with a toddler/preschooler and that it didn't worry us, we knew she was a full partner in bringing up our kid. And whenever DD asks for something when the nanny is here, I tell her that she has to ask nanny because nanny is in charge![/quote]
