[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The more receptive a nanny is to blindly follow your orders, the less likely she is to be confident with her own experience and knowledge. So which do you want? (We don't get the same level of both.)[/quote] I want her to be confident and proactive. I want not to feel like I need to micromanage in order to get her to do anything.[/quote] This doesn't need to be a choice. Plenty of nannies are confident in their own knowledge and yet still capable of following direction well. OP, you need to make clear to the nanny that for that morning hour, she needs to pretend you are not there. She needs to take charge of the kids and the house and her job involves fully engaging the kids so they stay out of your hair while you get dressed. Then close your bathroom or bedroom door and stay out of sight. [/quote]
