[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My suggestion would be to try your best not to compare her to your last nanny, and don't expect her to do everything the same way. She will find her own rhythm, and no one likes to constantly hear "well so and so did it this way" or "so and so wouldn't have reacted that way". Good luck! If your previous nanny stuck around for 8 years, you're doing something right![/quote] Great advice. To make her feel welcome, I would put together a little welcome basket with a few items (toiletries, maybe a $10 gift card to local coffee shop and maybe handmade cards from your kids welcoming their new nanny). It will take time for both parties to get used to each other so my best advice is to go into this open minded and relaxed. Like a PP said, you are obviously doing something right if your last nanny was there for 8 years. [/quote]
