[quote=Anonymous]Nanny here. Reflux is tough! Just hire someone with a lot of experience and have reasonable goals. When I have been in similar situations, I basically wore the baby in the carrier most of the morning. That way they are upright and as comfortable as possible while I did something like take the toddler on a walk or played in the yard. Then during nap for the toddler I would try to have the baby take a real nap in the crib or bassinet and do some tummy time if possible. You have probably already done this for yourself, but I would encourage you to have at least one room in the house that is thoroughly toddler-proofed because feeds can take forever with a reflux baby, and having a safe space where the toddler can’t hurt himself or make a tremendous mess will allow the nanny to focus on the baby for feeds.
