[quote=Anonymous]OP, I'm a bit biased as I have a difficult MIL and I can't tell you how much I regret allowing her anywhere around our nanny, back when we had a nanny, without one of us being present. MIL was awful to our nanny when she was allowed to interact directly with her. She was very rude, making comments that she thought our nanny wouldn't understand as English was her second language. I had to do a LOT of damage control, and after FIL died (he was a behavior buffer for MIL) I put a stop to those visits entirely. If MIL isn't someone you'd want alone with your DS, and if MIL isn't someone you'd want interfering in your relationship with your nanny, just say no. Your DH should be the one to do this, but if he can't or won't, then you need to. Don't lie, don't give excuses. Just say, "no, that's not possible. See you Sunday." [/quote]
