[quote=Anonymous]Nanny here. If the nanny is able to take the kids out to things like library story time, playdates at the park, meetups at local play areas or toy stores or an occasional music or kiddie gym class, then that is plenty of socialization for a 2 yo, assuming your nanny is overall an engaged and active caregiver. Does she give them a chance to write, play with play dough, fingerpaint, build block towers, etc.? Does she read with them and sing with them? Does she manage their behavior well and have them practice sharing, turntaking and social problem solving skills? If so, then I would stay where you are as 8:30-6 is a really long day for a 2yo. If your nanny doesn't meet the above description, then you might want a different nanny, or you need to talk with her about creating some lesson plans or edicational goals. If she's not able to get the kids to parks libraries or other spaces where they can practice interaction, then I'd advise looking for ways to address that. [/quote]
