[quote=Anonymous]I had a terrible, terrible experience with a nanny who wanted "free range." She didn't use the term but she told me that she knows how to do her job. It was my first child and first nanny. Now if I ever run into this style of nanny again, I will run the other way. This is a nice marketing spin on "I will do whatever I want, my way and ignore parents." This free range nanny even did cry it out with my child when I expressly told her that we do attachment parenting and to never ever let the child do cry it out. One day I cam home and she said "oh you might not like this but I have been letting ___ cry it out to sleep for naps." Nanny is not the parent. They do not get to make decisions on behalf of the parent on parenting styles, period. If nanny and parents are on the same page, great. If they are on different pages, it is always by the parents book or they get fired, period. If there is any ambiguity on this matter, you should not be a nanny. [/quote]
