[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is wild to expect that a nanny needs to entertain a 7 year old. He should be engaging in self directed play, going to activities, and playing with friends. What is wrong with you?[/quote] Right, how dare a nanny's employer expect the nanny to do her job! Well I never.[/quote] A 7yo is not a 2yo. There should be different expectations for different ages, and the child is bored at home (parent's description). The nanny has been trying, clearly, but OP is objecting to what the nanny is doing (museums, baking, park). Give the kid some chores, assign daily reading and math work, make sure that they have card and board games (games that require math, reading, and spelling), and let her take him to the park everyday.[/quote]
