[quote=Anonymous]My mother has watched my kids for a few years. We have just transitioned to an AuPair.  There is NO WAY that your CCP will ever bond with your child like a good grandparent can. My mother is amazing with my children and I know that if I were to fall over dead today my mother would love them and care for them just as much as me and my chidren love my mother almost as much as they love me. Nobody can compete with that.

My mother is moving and we are in the middle of the AP transition. My AP steps back to my mom and luckily my mom has just started to back off and stay at her own home for a few days. The AP is now finally able to breathe and get into her own groove. She does great and has much more confidence when my mom is not around.

You are being VERY unrealistic in thinking that the nanny and baby will bond with your mom there.

I have acknowledge MULTIPLE times to my AP that I fully realize that my mom makes her job awkward. I've told her to just hang in there, soon she will be the driver, but I simply cannot tell my mom to get out of my house. She loves my children as if they are her own and this transition is very sad for my mom. I have to balance supporting my AP and acknowledging the tough position she is in with my mom's feeling.

You will NEVER find a nanny who will be able to do her job to the fullest of her ability with your mom hanging around.[/quote]
