[quote=Anonymous]50 text messages per day sounds like way to many to me. It doesn't matter that most of them are one word responses. The point is that she stops engaging with the kids each time she types a one word response, and she is probably distracted all the time by whatever dialogue she is having, not to mention the constant checking for new texts and messages. Since you are paying for her cell phone, just switch to a plan and phone that does not include data or texts and use the phone when you need to reach her throughout the day. She'll probably find it harder to communicate with her friends by phone all day, so the problem may ease a bit. I do think this is a bigger problem with nannies under 25-26 than with more mature nannies. It's one of the reasons I won't even consider hiring a nanny under the age of 24.[/quote]
