[quote=Anonymous]I have this problem ever since I started. I have been a nanny for many families over the last 5 years and never encountered this situation. MB/DB raved about how they loved my experience and knowledge when they offered my the job. Almost immediately after both MB/DB have told me ( and asked) how and if I know how to make a bottle, prepare breastmilk, put on a schedule, keep entertained, hit milestones, etc. They are both first time parents and I chalked it up to reassurance on their part. Now I'm not so sure. Today we started my charge on formula. DB is like " you know how to make one right? Put 1 scoop to 2oz, etc?" I politely replied " I am well-educated with making bottles. I have been doing so for many years." He just replied " I know you have". MB is sort of another story. She used to ask my opinions but not so much anymore. Now I will inform her of how much food he should be eating, how to get him on a schedule, etc and she will go " research" and then tell me the exact same information I've told her days earlier. They have told me how they trust my judgement and they know my charge is in good hands. I now am feeling like I'm their kid sister and they either don't respect or trust my opinions. It makes me feel they think I'm dumb. I don't know if I should take it personal or not? Both MB/DB are well- respected people that are normally " in charge". I feel like I don't want to give my opinions any longer because they won't be respected or regarded. Please tell me whats going on here? Prefer other MB/DB to respond. [/quote]
