[quote=Anonymous]We have had a part-time nanny caring for our toddler daughter for a little over a month now, and I think that we're just not a good match. The nanny is very reserved and mostly just watches our daughter play rather than engaging her in play/games/songs/etc. She also spends a lot of time staring at her phone when she should be interacting with our daughter. Our daughter gets upset every morning when she sees the nanny come in (she doesn't do this with anyone else, including our other part-time nanny). When I check in on them using our camera (which she knows about) there is usually just silence or our daughter babbling to herself. She is a very fun-loving, curious, happy, and playful little girl, and it kills me to see her basically being ignored or just stared at by the nanny all day. I think that there is just a personality/style disconnect with what we are looking for, so we are thinking of finding a new nanny and letting her go. We've never had to let someone go before, so I'm unsure how to handle it. Any advice or thoughts? [/quote]
