[quote=Anonymous]OP: Pretty universal agreement here; you messed up. I watch my 3 kids (the oldest is 4) all the time without my DH (works shifts) and he watches them occasionally without me for 4-5 days at a time (my work travel). 1 kid in school some of the time. The fact you can’t manage that doesn’t meant you should assume no one else can — least of all a nanny who had agreed to, who presumably watches them regularly/knows them well and whose profession this is. Asking her if she’d like you to fly in reinforcements? Sure. Doing it without asking her? Especially your physically limited mother? Hell no. Cancel your mom. Even if she just loses the ticket cost, you’re better off. (Obviously apologize profusely to your nanny and ask her if she’ll do it if no mom first.)[/quote]
