[quote=Anonymous]We like our current nanny and the care she has given our toddler.  Ideally we would keep her through my maternity leave and she would then start caring for our baby and toddler when my maternity leave ends (baby would be 3-6 months, I'll gradually work from home and then build back up to full time).  However, our nanny does not have much experience with infants.  Are there any training classes or certifications that others are aware of that could help us ensure she can care for an infant?  Our insurance company offers a few brief (1-2 hour) classes for 1) new parents on how to care for an infant and 2) grandparents on what has changed in infant care since grandparents were parents.  Other than that and renewing infant CPR I'm not aware of anything, but I'm sure there must be things out there.  How else to nannies learn to care for infants?  Thank you for any recommendations or suggestions.  And yes, we'd pay for any classes and the time it takes the nanny to attend them.[/quote]
