[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our nanny started yesterday, I have 4 month old twins and this is my first time with anyone other than family watching them.  They were super fussy yesterday and I don't know how much I should be helping her out with them and lending a hand vs. letting the three of them figure things out (is my being around causing more distraction/confusion than good?).  I've obviously spent time showing her the basics (where stuff is, what their general routine is, how they like to be held/fed/soothed, etc.), but I'm not sure how much I should be participating in play and feeding and naps in these first days (I have this week off work).  I don't want to be unhelpful/cold, but I don't want to interfere in her establishing a rapport/routine.  I've been erring on the side of staying out of the wayyesterday afternoon and today (in the house but not where they are, or out running quick errands) .  Thoughts based on others' experiences?[/quote]
