[quote=Anonymous]Our beloved young energetic nanny, has taken some child developmental courses. She's not majoring in it, but she is taking courses in it and reads about child development as well. My mother is a teachers currently teaches elementary. My mother being nosy did ask what exacty or how my nanny teaches our daughter things. I think my mom might mean well, but sometimes she's too overbearing and critical. I mentioned how my nanny showed DD songs on YouTube, the Alphabet song. Also showed DD an educational site for learning colors. She does practice this without the need of media. But my mother felt if she was a truly good nanny, she would be creative on her own and would for example make cut out shapes of letters or come up with creative ways to teach my child without the need of media. She does work on colors with media. My mother jut frowns she had to enlist help from a YouTube alphabet song to get DD's interest and has her watch videos of colors as well. My mother things nanny is not really qualified or she's just lazy. I think nanny is doing fine but I do know of a friend's nanny that can teach things to her charge by being creative about numbers/letters/colors. So is there anything wrong with how my nanny is teaching my child, is she lazy or is my mother just too rigid and doesn't appreciate different ways of learning? Serious input please. [/quote]
