[quote=Anonymous]I have a wonderful nanny, who has been our saving grace since I went back to work. Prior to hiring her, DH and I had debated on family watching our child. After long contemplation, our SIL was our choice. She is currently a SAHM and has a teaching degree. We decided against hiring her due to not wanting friction within family if things didnt work out. She seemed fine with this and even claimed she would give nanny a welcome and show her around our area. Fast forward, we hired a nanny in her mid-twenties, who adores and encourages our child to learn while having fun. It seems that my SIL doesn't seem to be so keen on our nanny. She seems to compare our many to herself and will make back hand compliments. For example, our nanny is not getting a degree in ECE, but does read a lot about child development. SIL thinks there's no way she would know as much, as she doesn that've a teaching degree. When our child learned her colors, SIL made a snide comment stating that a lonely could teach her colors, now if our nanny taught our daugher capitals and states then she would be impressed. Constant deprecation. I am having a talk with her about it soon, whether DH backs me up or not. He doesn't want to get in the middle. She is semi aloof with our nanny, but our nanny doesn't worry about it. I'm taking it really personal because our nanny is amazing and this is getting old. Anyone been in a similar situation? I am not one to confront but I would not want our nanny to think we don't care about her. So am going to take a stand, our child loves her. I'm just sadden by the whole thing. [/quote]
