[quote=Anonymous]She is on maternity leave and constantly interrupts when I’m working with my charge. It like she thinks I just play all day with kids so if she wants to pop her head in and tell me something she saw on instagram or tell the kid to show me a dance he did the weekend she will. It’s crazy. Like i have a schedule and routine and when I am doing something like a puzzle or flash cards it’s important TO ME. Also in the morning she thinks she is “helping” by being around before school when really she is creating chaos because the kids don’t know who to listen to and keep stalling and manipulating her when we used to have smooth mornings. We have been late to school the past 2 days and it’s embarrassing. Db will tell her that’s it’s late and we usually are gone by certain times but she just keeps saying things like “ ok we’ll be real quick he’s hungry again” He is NOT hungry he is stalling It’s making me dread coming in the mornings. When we do lunch she chooses that time to come in the kitchen and have her lunch so our usual 20 minute meal times are now extended to 45 + minutes wasting time because they just beg for her food (which i find rude of her) and think they should just sit around chatting on and on. It’s making me nuts! She tells me to eat my lunch then too but I don’t because they usually start asking for seconds etc. I’ve always eaten when they go down and focus on them while they eat and clean up the kitchen I’m really thinking hard about asking her to be less visible during morning prep, and lunch. I understand they are her kids and she’d like to see them but the dynamic is so different now. I hate aimlessly sitting in the kitchen while kids play over food when they are done when we could have moved on to another activity and get on with our day and so I can eat my lunch while they go have quiet time and a moment of peace for at least 20 minutes. Then when I eat she thinks she should sit and talk to me the entire time. I’m there till 6 and deserve a break! Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh Help me please! I mean it’s nothing you all can do but mostly venting. Would you as a mb or nanny have this convo? I really want her to disappear somewhat when i come to work[/quote]
