[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, I'm not sure you are cut out for having a nanny, OP. Why not try a center where things are tightly controlled? Some have video cameras where you can live stream what's going on. You might find more comfort in that.[/quote]

OP again.  We've had a nanny before and she left because she moved.  We were very happy with her.  I don't feel the need to control the nanny, but I need to feel a certain level of trust.  I trusted our last nanny until the day she left and trust our babysitters.  I hired this nanny largely because I thought she would actively engage my child and play with her.  If she won't do that, then to put it bluntly, she's not worth hiring IMO because with young nannies, we're trading this off against maternal experience.   Anyway, the two times I got home early, I found her spacing out.  Like sitting a distance away from my daughter or sitting near her but looking off at nowhere.  When I've arrived on time, she is playing with my daughter.  I don't know if it's just coincidence that when I "catch" her, she's spacing out or just bad luck of hers.  I think it's good practice to keep an eye on your nanny, whether it's a nanny cam or following her one day.  I'd rather be paranoid than wrong on something having to do with my daughter.[/quote]
