[quote=Anonymous]I had one baby like this when I was doing a share. I just talked to him calmly, narrated what I was doing, and made him wait until I could handle what he needed or wanted. It got better with time, especially once he could communicate a little bit better (I used ASL with both babies). I also sleep trained both babies. Having been stuck with an infant who could only be walked for HOURS before finally taking a 15 minute nap and who was chronically overtired before I was not going to let that happen again. I talked with both parents and we set up a routine/schedule and I sleep trained them both. Both were sleep trained a little bit differently, but it did happen. IMO if you're doing a nanny share, the babies have to be sleep trained.[/quote]
