[quote=Anonymous]WFH is secondary to having clear and healthy communication and roles. It’s just that being physically away solves a lot of the potential problems. I think nannying is hard but I think being an infant mom and handing your baby to a nanny is harder. You’re taking your most important and passionate project and turning it over to someone else who is new. It’s hard! Be up front about your expectations for the baby and the nanny. Clearly communicate what you’re going to do. Of course it’s fine to pop out and to nurse. A nanny is going to be frustrated if she is implementing the agreed upon nap schedule and you pop out because you hear crying, for example. And hearing crying is going to be really hard. It’s hard for everyone and you are nursing, which means you’re going to set off a whole biological situation. That’s why women bring recordings for the pumping room. Just be a good employer, as best you can. [/quote]
