[quote=Anonymous]Yeah op kindly your expectations seem incredibly off here. It may be because you only have a very small infant right now but your baby is going to change so much in the next year. They will be moving, have separation anxiety, need more stimulation than one room, so many things. If you do get a two bedroom then like others said you and husband are in the bedroom and nanny gets the rest of the apartment. This sounds so rough to me but I can’t imagine if another way. Baby needs a spot to nap and they need access to the kitchen and you can’t jjst be there when they come in every time. There will be times that will work and it will be lovely to have lunch with your child, but there will also be times/stages that that will just be far far too hard on both your child and you. Times when it is disruptive to everyone. And working in your bedroom all day everyday is rough. I think you need to talk to friends or a neighborhood listserv in nyc for ideas as like you said, people have been making it work but you need to find a way to respect the nanny’s space if you want a good relationship with her [/quote]
