[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s always interesting when parents say you’ll never take care of the new baby because I’m on maternity leave ….. That is never the case especially after the father goes back to work ….. I’ve been a nanny for 15 years and I have yet to meet a mom who solely takes care of the newborn some moms still spend time with their older children so I’m in the house with the newborn or drs appointments, hair appointments, starting work out classes again … so many different scenarios on why all of a sudden you end up needing help so my families always end up paying me for every single child not 2 kids one day , then 3 kids the next that is stressful and makes absolutely no sense and if you do that trust your nanny will start resenting you because if that’s the case don’t ask me to wash a newborn bottle, pass you a bottle, make a bottle, get a diaper or anything of that nature….. just my opinion [/quote]

It’s never happened (mother in maternity leave who solely care for newborn) either.  When the mother has her post-natal doctor’s visit, do they hire another sitter for the newborn?  Do they get another babysitter when the mom wants to run out and grab a coffee or get a haircut?  Does the nanny just ignore the baby and never bond?

It just doesn’t work the way OP thinks it does.

So to OP:  go to $30 when the baby is born.  [/quote]
