[quote=Anonymous]1) Yes to what everyone else said. She apologized, she heard your concerns, move on. 2) Is it possible she doesn't approve of the way you're enforcing discipline? I ask because I know a lot (most) of nannies seriously fail at working with kids 2-16. No hate, I was a schoolteacher for a long time and learned a lot of tricks, but I get significantly better behavior from the kids then their other nanny. This is due to setting expectations ahead of time, talking slowly and quietly when they begin to get upset and remind them I will listen to them before I do anything, focus entirely on the positive behavior and only require a time out if they are hurting others on purpose, etc. I've actually never had to use a time out in the past four years, but I know all children are different. If you think she's unhappy with the systems in place ask her to sit down and talk about how to work together to improve your charge's behavior.[/quote]
