[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter is 12 months and with a nanny. The nanny arrives at 830 am. She feeds baby a snack and packs a lunch for her. Then she leaves with baby in her car, baby has a short morning nap en route to wherever they go - usually the library or the mall or something. They have lunch while out, and return to my house about 1. Baby goes down for second nap about 130/2, sleeps until 3ish. During this time the nanny unpacks lunch stuff and cleans up and preps a snack. Sometimes does baby‘s laundry. When baby wakes up, nanny feeds her a snack and they read or play until 430 when nanny departs. [/quote]

If I were you I’d be looking for another nanny. Your baby needs development not off at the mall or wherever doing god knows what[/quote]

What would you suggest? The library seems like a good activity? The mall is socialization. I’m in need of ideas![/quote]

DP. The mall might be fine, or it might not. Is there a children’s area at the mall where your child can climb, run around and make friends?  Or is your child sitting in a stroller for hours while your nanny tries on dresses at H&M?  (Even the children’s areas at malls should be visited sparingly. They are FULL of germs).

Library is good. Nature walks. Heck we would even go to PetsMart and look at fish. What about a toddler tumbling program that meets 1x per week?  There are also toddler music programs like Kindermusic.  These typically meet during the day so perfect for your nanny if y’all can work around nap time.  Most children’s museums have a toddler area - your kiddo is not too young for those places. Start checking them out. Many offer memberships so nanny and baby can go as many times as they want.

Also you mention that they are eating out everyday. Again, might be fine, but I’d want confirmation that they aren’t eating fast food everyday.

Lastly I completely understand why your nanny would want to get out of the house - more interesting for her, no cleanup, etc. But kids that age also like super simple things like finger painting or playdoh that can be done at home. Not every day has to be a big adventure. [/quote]

PP says that her nanny packs lunch for the baby, which implies the baby isn't eating fast food.
