[quote=Anonymous]I would first speak to your current nanny and ask her how she feels about taking on two more babies. Some nannies would be okay with it, others may not. I personally think it's impossible for ONE adult to care for three kids so young AND be able to address their needs adequately. There are always the nannys who say they can do it all, and I believe they believe they can. But what would they do in this case? The older child just got into something in the house, made a horrible mess and in the process hurt his finger and is crying. He needs to be consoled while the mess needs to be cleaned up before it affects anything else. Well if this happened during nap time for the babies, that would be doable. But imagine if both babies are awake, screaming in hunger. Which baby do you pick to feed first? And how in the world do you even pick when both are starving at the exact same time? Because as any parent and nanny knows, kids are very demanding. Just some food for thought. In my opinion, I would hire a nanny to work alongside the one you have now.[/quote]
