[quote=Anonymous]Thank you for the baby app suggestion.  I’ll check that out!

The nanny has been in many shares in the past.  I know she wants to make all of the parents happy, and that has to be tough for anyone.

On the prioritizing issue, I suspect the nanny is prioritizing one child over the other because she tells me she is doing this.  The nanny often tells me she has to hold and play with the other baby more than mine because the other baby cries really hard and my baby never does. She says my baby is “independent” and doesn't need as much attention.  I completely disagree with the concept that a child needs attention only if it is crying, and that a child does NOT need attention if it is NOT crying.  That said, I know that if my baby was the one crying a lot I would absolutely want the nanny to hold and comfort him more.  I just thought that as the months went by one baby needing more attention would pass, but that doesn’t seem to have happened. 
 
The two babies are two months apart.  My baby is older, and I know that two months is a big age difference when they are little.  I also know that the younger baby may legitimately need more care.  How much more has surprised me. 
 
In addition, we have a couple nanny cams which the nanny is 100% aware of and has been aware of from the beginning.  She knows exactly where the cameras are.  The presence of nanny cams is in our contract.  Even still, I know that I can’t possibly see absolutely everything that happens during the day.
