[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP, I am sorry that this is hard. I suggest making a schedule and spelling out when and what activities you envision. Go over the schedule on Sunday evening and see how it goes. Watching 10mo and 4yo is hard. So I would not expect too many joint activities on those days, other than taking the kids to the playground where the baby can nap and the 4yo can run around. However, I would spell out what to do with the 4yo while the baby naps. I would also add clean-up to the schedule. I agree that with her credentials you should be able to expect more, but give a schedule a try and see how it goes. If things don’t improve, you may be heading for a rematch. It is also possible that your AP is looking for an easier gig already, which is why she behaves the way she does. Good luck! [/quote]
