[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As for the money, she has another job too. And she was happy to accept our offer. I do not understand why she needs to read the news while my daughter is right next to her. I am home today so I let her leave an hour early and we are paying for it. Is it too much to ask to interact with my daughter instead of reading telegram? [/quote] No it is not too much to ask. She should be doing something interactive with the child at least half the time (walk or take to playground, play a board game, do a craft, read a book together). And the other half when the child is playing independently (NOT watching TV) the nanny should either be going through the list of chores that you give her, or else reading a book. I minimize phone use in front of my kids and I expect my nanny to do the same. They are expected to be role models.[/quote]
