[quote=Anonymous]FTM and I work from home.  In a nanny share with another family and we decided the share would be here for the first few months for a variety of reasons.  We're a couple months in and it's just not working out.  I regularly see the nanny doing things that the other family explicitly asked her not to do, and I feel like the freaking police.

I feel bad for the nanny because she's clearly struggling with 2 little ones (who wouldn't?!) and is taking short cuts to make her life easier.  Again, who wouldn't?  But, if I were the other family, I would want to know that the baby I spent 2 weeks training to sleep without a swaddle was being swaddled for naps in the share because the nanny doesn't want her to cry for a few minutes.  That is just one of a few examples.

What would you do in this situation?  Tell the family?  I really hate being a tattle tale but I know how much they are struggling with their LO's sleep and think this might be undermining their progress.

I also don't fully trust the nanny now because she's explicitly telling the other family one thing and then doing another.  Even though I get why she's doing it it still makes me uneasy.[/quote]
