[quote=Anonymous]i think it's a good idea to specifically talk about the reasons why you decided your last nanny was not a good fit. Because the reality is that you will be very sensitive to them this time around and so she should know that ahead of time rather than wonder why you might get on her case after a single playdate outing with a slightly mismatched aged kid. The more info she has, the better equipped she is to do what you want. Also re: letting things slide. I would hate if my boss told me every single thing I did wrong. MBs too weigh which battles to pick and how many times a nanny needs to do something they don't like before making an issue of it. Becasue the reality is that no one cares for your kids exactly as you do (weekends I regularly struggle w/ holding my tongue when DH does something with the kids that is not how I do it; and he's great with them). This can unfortuantely result in situations where a bad behavior goes on too long.[/quote]
