[quote=Anonymous]I've a nanny for a baby who just turned five months old. I've been working with there family for almost three months. I work there part time 2-3 days a week. I have noticed that MB and DB have stared to increasly spoil the baby but I fear as though some of these things are going to get her into bad habits and be hard to correct as she gets older. Such as.

Constantly holding her and having her ALWAYS engaged on someone's hip. It's to the point now where she will not let me do anything without whining a screaming to be picked up. I think with a some help from her parents this is something that can be easily ficked with a little patience. I'm worried this is leading her up to a bad habit as she's getting older. I worry she will turn into a one year old that no one can ever put down to do anything. When she's with me a tend to let her cry some if there is no real need not always but sometimes when she's just fussing to be picked up.

Also the baby is breastfed she takes the bottle on a lucky day (mostly only on the days she's with me) I keep her 10 hours a day. But now that she is eating solids and cereals its not such a big issue that she isn't taking the bottle. I've noticed that when mom feeds her or even when I feed her around mom the second she makes one little cry mom snatches her up to breastfeed her. Im pretty sure this is what she does when im not there. To me another bad habit. When I'm feeding her especially on Mondays it's always rough because she comes from a whole weekend of almost nothing but breast feeding. She will eat but cry some.

To sum it all up I think it's all to much switching for a baby her age. Me and mom are both with her on opposite days mom works (m/w/and every other Fridays) and stays with her the other days. I believe that me and mom need to be on the same page as far as what we are doing with her so it does not effect her in a negative way. Am I wrong for sitting mom down or writing an email telling her my thoughts. I don't want her to think I'm sayings she's a bad parent because she's not but we need to work together on something's. They are usually receptive to my thought and ideas but this I'm nervous about. What do you guys think.
