[quote=Anonymous]I think it's hard to be a new nanny with kids of these ages. You don't have any history with them and they're going to be testing your authority. Our new nanny was struggling with my 2 boys, who were very well behaved with their prior nanny. She came to me for help and we made a plan together. On her end, she was giving too many chances, and not following through with any of her consequences. My kids took full advantage, sadly. Our kids have a behavior chart, and they have to maintain their good behavior for screen time. I gave the nanny full control over 2 items of their chart, so she could use screen time as leverage. She also put a reward system in place for each kid based on their interest. A week of perfect behavior earned a small reward. Things really turned around and in the past 2 months, there's been only 1 or 2 days of bad behavior reported. I'm so impressed with the nanny for coming to me with her concerns and working together with me to address it.[/quote]
