[quote=Anonymous]I am a WAHM. Your MB needs to take a firm stance that you are in charge and they cannot come ask her to overrule you. It took my kids two days to figure it out with me constantly repeating it. Nanny's in charge while I am working. If she already said no then do not even ask. I turn them around and walk them right out of the room. I admit that if they got hurt I will give them comfort but I won't let them play us. The questions about messes not being cleaned are just obnoxious. Unless its the end of the day and you are leaving it there. I don't even know what to say about that one. My approach with WAH is to treat my nanny as a complete equal, not an employee, in order to let my kids see her as an authority. If I need to be the employer, that is done outside of her caregiving hours, just like it would if I WOH (before and after work).[/quote]
