[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here- thanks all. We are paying her the 2 kid rate already starting when the baby was born. she was hired while I was pregnant and all was discussed , including that it would likely be very annoying for all when maternity leave starts. I guess I was trying to avoid having to do the whole hiding/ texting thing. To PP who posted shcedule thank you. It sounds like the adjustment may have went better? Our nanny does take dd out for morning. But I can’t even throw laundry in or stand at the sink if she sees me she just cries and tries to drag me to play with her. [/quote]

It helped because MB had some time off during pregnancy as well (she cut back to 4 days for the last month, so we had already had the toddlers tantrum for attention.  If you (the parent) give them attention for those kinds of fits then it reinforces and the kids will donit every time.   Obviously I don’t know exactly what’s going on in your household, but my guess is that you might need to have a few days of toddler tantrum and constantly while you avoid eye contact/talking to her outside of designated times when you and Manny have told her in advance that you will be spending time with her.  If she throws if you fits and does not get any additional attention, she will figure out the new plan.[/quote]
