[quote=Anonymous]Thanks to everyone for the suggestions! The overwhelming consensus is that I should try proceeding with a more detailed weekly schedule, and setting that on Sundays before the week. I'm going all in on that approach, so I hope it works! For the baby, she is actually very interactive and loves playing (knocking over blocks, chasing remote control cars, taking things in and out of anything, etc.) Based on these suggestions, I'll start setting out certain toys in the morning for her to play with and ask the au pair to engage with those with her each day. And thanks for the classes suggestion! Once she's able to drive, I fully intend to sign the kiddos up for classes, and give her destination playgrounds to take the kids! (despite having driven in her home country, she has failed her written drivers test a couple times but just passed and is on her way to a driver's license--I hope!). And to the person who commented about her not being a nanny - see my original post where I say "I appreciate this is not to be compared with a professional nanny, but I want to get a sense of what is reasonable to expect?". I'm not asking for anything more than what is reasonable in this context. [/quote]
