| Yes, you are unreasonable. |

| Well if it’s in a share, I would think it’s reasonable. |

| Daycares don’t even allow this. So, no not unreasonable if it’s a young baby. |

| Twin nanny here. I will often set it up so that one bottle is propped during simultaneous feeds to that I have one hand free to, e.g. wipe away dribbles, but I keep a hand on the bottle unless I actually need to use the hand for something else for a second. |

| Sometimes it’s unavoidable unless one child would scream for 10+ minutes while the other drinks. On a regular basis, no, the nanny can figure out a way to stagger. |

| With 2 babies I think you gotta do what you gotta do. As long as its not the same baby every time its ok now and again. |

| Is she in the room with the baby? Is she watching the baby? If yes, then I don’t see the issue. |

| What is nanny doing while she props? are you in a share? Do you have a long list of chores? Please explain further for a proper response |

You get what you pay for. If you want your baby to have individual care get your own nanny. Or I guess the nanny could leave your child to scream and cry, waiting for it’s food while the other baby eats? |
