[quote=Anonymous]For some reason, I have a very difficult time taking constructive criticism from MB. I just started temping for a family which may lead to a long term position, but the nanny agency relayed a message to me that I called the mom too many times at work on my first day when I could not get their baby to calm down. I was told she was a very happy baby but that afternoon, she screaming her head off even after I had tried everything possible to help her calm down before calling the mom. I only had called twice, once when nothing I tried on my own worked and another time when none of MB's suggestions to me were working. I am pretty experienced with infants, but this was very alarming to me, so I felt MB should know. She'd previously told me to call her anytime for any concern I had. And now I feel so stupid that apparently it irritated her that I was having a rough first day with the baby. Since then, things have gotten much better, but the fact that she mentioned this to the agency makes me worry that I won't be considered for a long term position with the family. I love the kids (ages 6 months, 3 and 5) and they seem to love me and always ask if I am coming back. But I worry that I made a bad first impression that they won't be able to look past. Is it possible to redeem their impression of me? [/quote]
