[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a charge who wouldn’t sleep long and I started doing more activities in the morning to tire her out and now she cries for about 2 minutes and is out for almost 2-3 hrs now. She also use to get put down early and now I’ve extended the time so she’s going to sleep an 1-1.5 hrs later than what her parents use to put her down. I also would try my hardest not to let her sleep in the stroller and if she did fall asleep she would just get about 10 minutes and parents were okay with that.

As for the infant, I would start whining him or her off of warm bottles and start offering room temperature. This way, the nanny can get out the house. Do you have a double stroller or stroller and baby carrier? I’m not sure why it’s hard for the nanny to use the elevator. I take a double stroller up and down the stairs and on the metro everyday.

It really sounds like nanny is a little lazy. Two weeks? She hasn’t even given it time to try and work things out or get the 2 yr old on a schedule. I know it’s frustrating, but you may find a nanny who knows what they’re doing.[/quote]

The nanny can't carry two children at the same time up the elevator. My son will wake up if he's transferred out of the car

It’s going to take time now because he’s older but you may need to sleep train him. If nanny is still around, you need to come up with a plan. Another charge of mines (in a nanny share) she doesn’t like to take naps everyday but her mom wants her to have “down time.” She goes in her crib with books, stuffed animals and she stays in there for 2 hours with the sound machine on and lights off. Sometimes she cries on and off or falls asleep after an hour or so; and sometimes she would just talk to her animals the whole time- she’s 22 months.[/quote]
