[quote=Anonymous]One thing that I found is that as kids get older, there are a lot more value judgments you're conveying in parenting, and it's harder to find a nanny who is in sync with you - probably impossible, in fact, because you can't anticipate the questions you'll get from your kids, so you can't know what to ask the nanny about in an interview. When it's reading to a toddler or changing an infant's diaper, that's not really an issue. I stepped back from my career with my oldest in elementary and my youngest as a baby - the way I thought of it was that the added time with DC1 was for her, and the time with DC3 was for me - he didn't need me, but I wanted those snuggles![/quote]
