[quote=Anonymous]We've been in a nanny share for 10 months. Generally speaking, the other family is nice enough, but we have been having increasingly more issues come up as of late. These are mostly related to parenting philosophies that don't align that have become more apparent and more of an issue the longer we've been in the share. Their parenting choices have indirectly been impacting our daughter with regards to the other girl's lack of any sort of schedule as well as some behavior struggles.

Given that there's no easy fix for our philosophy differences, we're considering ending the share at the one year mark in May. However, we love our nanny (the other family feels the same way) and would like to keep her on our own. Technically, I was the one who found her ad and the share is in our house, but both families interviewed her and started with her at the same time. What's the best way to approach the situation? I was planning on seeing whether she'd be open to this and just going from there. This may all be a moot point if she doesn't want to leave the other family or can't due to financial reasons. If that's the case, we would just try and suck things up longer because we don't want to lose her. If she is open to it, however, I realize that puts the other family in a bad spot without a share and a nanny so I fully expect some angry or upset reactions on their end, but I don't see how else this can be done.

Is there a better way to do this?[/quote]
