[quote=Anonymous]Recovering Tiger Mom here: inasmuch as this child is not yet two years old, maybe you could ensure there are appropriately stimulating toys available like puzzles, Duplos or similar, (large) button sorters, push toys, toddler crayons or Magic/Wonder ink kits, ride-on toys (rockers and child-propelled cars), musical toys and [u]ask[/u] the nanny to work with the child on them. There are companies that specialize in these; I daren't mention a name, but they usually are pretty good at finding parents. Having that one-on-one time at home at that age is a precious gift and with some coaching, maybe your nanny can help address your other concerns. I'd give that a try before shipping the child off to institutional care which is bound to carry other issues like more opportunities for sickness, less flexibility for your work schedule, less stabilty in caregivers, etc. [/quote]
