[quote=Anonymous]We have a bilingual nanny who speaks to our 2 year old son exclusively in Spanish. She started with us when he was 1.5 years old and he was confused at first but within 3 months he understood most of what she said and now he can say about 100 words in Spanish. I've worked from home at times and have verified that the nanny only speaks Spanish with our children. The whole "Spanish emersion" thing was the nanny's idea and it's worked out well. I don't speak Spanish at all so I have no idea what our boy is saying sometimes but I get a kick out of it. It seems like your nanny is taking the easy road by speaking the language your child is already comfortable with. You may need to insist that she sticks with French.[/quote]
