[quote=Anonymous]I am all for facilitating independent play, but I wonder if maybe you're coming at it too strongly for DD's age (or perhaps presenting it to your nanny poorly)? At 18 months, no way would I leave a child in a room by herself for 15-30 minutes. It's just asking for chewed up crayons, every toy pulled off the shelf, and general mayhem. No way would I want to invite all that in ;-) Now that doesn't mean that my charge isn't playing with some cars on the kitchen table while I make lunch, or looking at a book while I pack up the diaper bag, etc. He gets time to himself, I'm just very nearby to ensure chaos doesn't break out. Now, I could be misinterpreting and this is exactly the kind of independent play you want, but if I'm misinterpreting you, there's probably a good chance your nanny is too.[/quote]
