[quote=Anonymous]You can look for a candidate whose philosophy is the same as yours - yes. But no one will be the exact replica of you - even if they try. Our nanny believes in the importance of narration and does not believe in sleep training or ever allowing a baby to cry-it-out -- as do we. We learned that in the interview. She is more firm with DC than DH or I are but that hasn't been an issue for us and is probably good for him. On a lot of issues where we disagree, she always cheerfully says that she will do as we ask (after she respectfully gives her opinion). She does call him by a nickname that I don't care for and gives him more praise than I am comfortable with -- but nothing that I think is harmful or disrespects our general wishes. Choose the hill you wish to die on carefully, OP. You do not want to lose a great nanny for things that are unimportant like protecting a second box of tissues. [/quote]
