[quote=Anonymous]Long time HM here. I wonder OP if your AP is really an 8. You’re a first time HM. When I was on my first AP I would have given her a high rating too, despite the many problems I had with her (that were for the most part not related to childcare). Every AP since has been a much better fit, and I can now see that the first AP was more like a 3-4. I think it’s hard to gauge things until either you’ve had a few APs or have a first AP who is such a godsend that you find yourself crying at the thought of her year ending. In recent years I’ve had good luck with 8s and 9s. All were fantastic. The 8s had really minor issues - nothing serious enough to mention - and I would never have said about them “she’s fine, and I know I could do far, far worse.” I think it’s possible your 8 is not really an 8. I advise that you keep her only for one year and start fresh with a new AP. [/quote]
