[quote=Anonymous]Did she sign on to the job with you working at home or did that change due to Covid? Many nannies preCovid would never accept a job where one or both parents were working at home.  It makes things much more challenging.

You may be more of a keep on schedule type person & her more of a read the child's cues and meet their current needs type person.  The transition from 2 naps down to 1 can take a few months to do smoothly.

The coldness with you could be due to multiple things: she may have got close with other employers before and lines got blurred, she have got close before and got let go unexpectedly, she may have social anxiety or be an introvert & only like the child care portion or her job, she sense your disapproval and be trying to avoid much interaction with you, she might not approve of how you do things and thinks it best she hold her tongue.

The part where you think she may steal your child. Any mental health issues on your part you should maybe explore ?

Would the two of you communicate better over email, or other method like a childcare app?
