[quote=Anonymous]I think your expectations are reasonable and fairly standard in the nanny world. Make everything clear upfront and write a contract. And definitely talk about both staying fluid. If the baby has colic and needs to be held upright all day and walked around, obviously nothing else is going to get done. And a note to you as the mother and employer who is working from home: if you plan to breastfeed your baby (at the breast) for every feeding, you better be available when your baby is hungry. It doesn’t matter what kind of zoom meeting you’re in or what kind of catastrophe is happening in your work - the baby comes first. If this isn’t always possible and your first priority then start the nanny on giving the baby one bottle of pumped milk every day and leave her another pumped bottle for emergencies. [/quote]
