[quote=Anonymous]My nanny has fallen asleep on the job, but for a reason -- she let my infant son sleep on her when she wanted to be held and she napped while he did. She also tells me that she does this, so I would be able to tell her I was uncomfortable if that were true. I think it's time for a frank talk with your nanny about napping. You don't necessarily need to make it confrontational -- just say, that it would be ok to nap while your kid(s) are (both, all) napping, but otherwise while she doesn't need to be actively engaged, she does need to be supervising in some capacity, and that is just impossible while she is sleeping. I think her reaction to this (ie apologetic, standoffish, etc.) will tell you whether you can continue to trust her, and therefore whether you will still be comfortable employing her. [/quote]
