[quote=Anonymous]OP here. It's breaking my heart knowing this can't connect with me. I did not know it was this bad until I started. MB told me she has been like this since about 6-8 weeks old. I feel for DB the most. He will try to hold her and play and she will scream bloody murder until he puts her down or MB takes her back. What's contributing to the situation is MB works from home 2-3 days a week and will nurse her on those days. We are very active and go out almost all day but she is crying or fussing majority of the time. I know she is hard for Mb sometimes too. MB said she she has always been a really fussy baby but more tolerable when with her.

Don't get me wrong. I care for my charge like any other I've had in the past. I keep her safe, try and be very interactive, hug and kiss her, hold her ( mostly when younger) but that hasn't seemed to do much. I do love her and have no ill thoughts ( obviously) but it's heartbreaking to put so much in and spend my majority of my time with a baby who just cries and cries all day long. The only time she let's me hold her Is naps because she won't sleep anywhere else but a carrier or your arms.

I've worked with 8 families in 9 years with most starting at 3 months. I've either quickly bonded the first day ( no joke) with a child or by the first week. I had colic/reflux babies and that never was an issue. They cried a lot and sometimes I cried too because of how much pain they were in. I love them just like my other charges that did not have those issues. I am very sought after in my area. I've never gone to an interview and not got the job right away. I put a lot of love and effort into my job because I want nothing but the best for each of my charges. It's so heartbreaking to not be able to bond at all. I am miserable at my job because of it. DB fold me their last nanny left for the same issue and they hope to not lose me. It's sad.
