[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.

Sorry for any confusion.  There are times when the baby is napping where it's fine if she leaves with the older DS to get outside for a bit.  She always texts me ahead of time to confirm it's okay.  And if there are times when it's not going to work for my schedule (like today), I'm very clear about it so there isn't confusion about who is in charge or responsible for the baby.

I asked her this evening what happened, and she said she planned on only being outside with DS1 for 5 minutes and then just lost track of time.

She has been a solid caretaker for a couple years so I'm definitely just giving a pass on this.  I was admittedly very frustrated when it happened though.[/quote]

OP that doesn't sound right, or at least it doesn't jibe with your earlier explanation.  You said that when you texted her she said "she was not at home".  But "outside for 5 minutes" sounds like in the yard.

I think you need to mention this again and say that you need her to ask and get confirmation in the future to avoid this.   I am a really relaxed MB but I would not let this one go with no conversation.  She didn't even let you know she was leaving?  And certainly didn't ask permission?  Even after you *specifically* said you could not help out today.  Something is not cool.  Was she at least profusely sorry that this was her mistake?

If not, I'm kind of wondering what you have let you in the past that you are not telling us.  Because if she has always been awesome and now this I would definitely go back to it because this was really different.
