[quote=Anonymous]PS, I know tou said you are not willing to have a meltdown, but if Grandma is a safe and competent caregiver then there is no reason to think the meltdowns will last forever. If she comes over consistently and if you really leave (meaning leave the house, not leave the room), then it should gradually be just like drop-offs for preschool or with a babysitter. A few tears at the beginning and then they adjust. I would think that most nannies would have been on the other side of that kind of transition enough to know that kids are much MORE anxious when they are trying to make the adult stay than when the adult has already left.[/quote]
