[quote=Anonymous]Two things: 1) It is perfectly reasonable for her to institute an up to 1-1.5 hour "quiet time" for the youngest, but she should realize that it is likely she will still have to interact with him from time to time unless he is exceptionally well-behaved. 2) If she has been used to an afternoon that goes two-hour nap for youngest, followed by older kids get home from school, followed by kids entertain themselves, then she is probably not happy about the added work. However, I would not be ok with this. I fully expect our nanny to interact with our older children in the afternoon, and at least supervise play time. Ours love doing crafts, and the 4-6 hours are when she can do those with the older kids once or twice a week. Sometimes she takes everyone to a playground. Sometimes they run around like crazy people and play dress up or go outside, but she still watches them.[/quote]
