[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would hire an actual nanny. Babysitting for family from time to time is a lot different that full time care for twins.

Just going on what you describe seems like this could be a ton of trouble and not worth causing trouble with a close family friend.
Tell her thanks, but you prefer she just be the "auntie" and come by  to play and spoil the kids.[/quote]

+1 Caring for infant twins is not a casual thing!  It is very difficult and very demanding.  I would never have left my twins for ten minutes with someone with just occasional family experience.  [/quote]
Yet hospital workers release newborns to parents with no infant experience daily. Somehow they figure it out. Op offer her 15 per hr.[/quote]

LOL  Do you really think it is the same thing?!  Parents have a biological imperative to care for their own offsprings - the childcare giver does not.  And an inexperienced nanny with twin charges is a situation made for disaster and accidents.

Get a qualified nanny, OP.  And let her go to her own home at night so that one of you is rested to care for the babies during the day (because that will not be you or your husband).  No matter how horrible our night were with our twins, I knew that in the morning a fresh and rested nanny would show up to take care of my girls.  [/quote]
