[quote=Anonymous]Thx 15:03. :-) My kids are typical kids. They behave pretty well most of the time, and we don't have issues with parenting them. Nor did their prior nanny have any trouble managing them, but she was inherently a confident person. The new nanny is much more passive than I realized (or than she seemed during her interview and trial day, or than was described in her references.) She has a lot going for her, I think she just needs to learn how to be the one in charge. My question is how to speed up her learning process - I don't want to fire her, or berate her, I want to support her. I also don't think the most effective way for her to grow is by me lecturing her. Perhaps a better way to frame this is to ask the professional nannies here how they would mentor someone new to the profession? 15:03 - how would you articulate to another nanny some of your "tricks" on being the authority?
