[quote=Anonymous]I’m going to disagree with everyone here. My three children are older now, but I remember hating to see them with the nanny because, although nanny was sweet and attentive, she would never do that kind of things you’re talking about OP. All of the PPs can talk about how great it is for children to learn on their own, but the reality is that humans are social creatures, we learn an incredible amount from engagement with other people, esp important lessons about connection with other human beings. It’s natural for most mothers to sit and talk with and play with and engage with their babies because we are highly motivated for them to learn and grow. The reality is that a nanny just does not care as much, in most cases. It’s exhausting to engage with a child all day, it takes so much out of you, but moms do it all the time. And dads sometimes.[/quote]
