[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was in the same situation and what really helped was having the nanny start a couple weeks before I went back to work. This allowed my kid to see this person of less of a stranger and more of a family friend. She accompanied us to all the fun places we usually went to. The hard to except fact was that when I finally went to work, my kid seriously was so unfazed and the transition was flawless. A cute book that you can get for LO is Maxy Poppinz. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/1466438592/ref=mw_dp_mpd?pd=1&qid=1363898008&sr=8-1 It's a picture book that introduces the concept of what a nanny is, and why she/he is standing in for Mom while she is at work.[/quote] I was going to recommend this book as well. It will help you open dialogue with your child, and also give you examples of good nanny care to help you in your search! Good luck![/quote]
