[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I certainly don't think a "newborn care specialist" or specially trained "baby nurse" is required to care for a baby, unless there are special needs. Almost every mother on the planet cares for her baby. It does not require a trained professional. You're right - I'm not an early childhood professional. I'm an experienced mother (and aunt, big sister, babysitter, godmother, friend, etc....) Babies are pretty easy. Even when you have twins as I do. Still pretty easy. Hard work? Sure. Exhausting? Sure. Requiring "an experienced and trained professional"? Nope.[/quote] There's only one logical reason a mother of twin babies would insist that caring for them is an "easy" job: she has someone else doing the work for her much of the time.[/quote] Nope, not when they were infants. It was all me (and my husband when he was home.) I stayed home for a long time so I did it all. They were easier as babies than they are now. It's a much harder job on several levels to wrangle toddlers and preschoolers. And now I have help. And I hired for people w/ experience w/ this age group. They're experienced, but they're not "trained".[/quote] You're just out of the loop, lady. [/quote]
