[quote=Anonymous]1. Get enough bottles to get through the morning until naptime.
2. Set a schedule, and have the nanny and toddler out of the house twice per day.
3. Have the nanny prep and clean bottles during toddler’s nap, including prep for weekend.
4. Nanny should be doing all kid laundry, preferably folding/putting away during toddler nap.  She should also be experienced enough to start it while toddler eats breakfast and switch it while toddler eats lunch.
5. You need to stick to the schedule too, and that includes having a picture schedule for your toddler.  So, when you come up to wash the pump parts, nanny can point to the schedule and talk your toddler through how much time it will be until your next time with her.
6. You need to be able to switch off kids on the schedule.  If you’re pumping, nanny can feed a bottle while you are playing with your toddler.  If you can set two thirty minute periods, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, that should be enough.  She’s jealous because the baby gets all of your attention, and she’s not old enough to understand why.[/quote]
