[quote=Anonymous]Both my kids did this with our nanny. yes, it hurts and you can't do anything to change that for the MB - it is worst if this is her first too. Good tactics: 1. leave quickly unless MB is the one prolonging it. Nothing good to come from trying to comfort the baby yourself. Rip the bandaid off and he will calm down quicker 2. If this has happened before w/ other families mention how common it is - that this is a stage that will pass but that many many nanny kids go through. 3. Hope your MB is rational. If so, it will mean that even though she is very sad, unless she plans to be a SAHM instead then this is actually a good thing since it indicates child is very attached to his caregiver - that is what a rational mom should want in someone taking care of her kid for 8+ hours a day, even if it does suck to be on the receiving end of the screams. In my case, it took a few months for this to be less common. Got better as the kid got towards 2.[/quote]
