Example #257 on how to be the best nanny

[Anonymous]

DS is 15 months old and suddenly loves dinosaurs. I saw an adult book in his nanny's bag yesterday about dinosaurs and asked her about it. She said that she needed to learn about dinosaurs so she could be more precise in her language with DS.

WE HAVE THE BEST NANNY!!!

That is such a great thing for your nanny to be doing. The best nannies always take a special interest in the kids they watch. Her doing some research to engage your son in his interests speaks very highly of her.

Learning how to optimize my charge's development is one of my most enjoyable and satisfying activities.

What else is more important?

Wow at 15 months to show an interest in something that requires research is rather impressive. I take care of 3 young charges 1 is 18 months old and his interests are eating, dumping out toys, still putting everything in his mouth and pulling his cats tail and just torturing the cat. Maybe I should research some things about cats as it's clearly his interest at the moment. Of course the moment I would sit down to explain cats to him my charge would run away and start drooling as his attention span is about 3 minutes.

Wow, that's great of her! I try to do similar things. My charge became obsessed with clocks for a while. I found this book called What Time is it Fairy Princess that has a play clock built into it. He loves moving the clock hands, and is now obsessed with the cupcakes shown in the book. I made a real life version of the cupcake to match the picture, he thought it was a magic trick, he loved it. And now he can say cupcake and a bunch of other words from the book so I think it's great to really expand on what they are interested in!

I love hearing about nannies who go the extra mile for their charges.

I am happy you are happy op, but this is nanny 101.

It's sad to me that this is considered the extra mile .

Where are people finding nannies that this is considered extraordinary?

It's still a kind gesture.
