[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You have to keep in mind that your baby and the nanny are not used to each other yet.  It takes time for that bond to strengthen.  Within a few weeks the crying will lessen, baby will be used to being rocked downstairs and nanny will know your baby's cues.
It's also not necessarily a bad thing that nanny does things differently than you do.  Your baby will be used to many ways instead of one.  She will definitely be more adaptable.
Give her a bit of space, but most importantly, your support.

This is the OP.  This is exactly what I am thinking.  I believe DD is a bit too dependent on the swaddle right now, and we had a ROUGH car trip several weeks back b/c of it, so I actual am glad that she isn't using it.

I really appreciate all of the opinions and support.  I think I will show her how to use the white noise machine tomorrow morning and gently suggest she might be able to stretch the nap out that way.  She actually may not know how to use it b/c I didn't show her specifically.  I have asked her a couple of times today if she has any questions and if she is doing ok, and she is very confident that things are going well, so I am trying to steer clear and not be in the way.  It will probably be better when I am out of the house tomorrow :).      [/quote]
