[quote=Anonymous]OP, I am wondering....How did you find this nanny? On your own or through an agency? Anyway, yes you are a FTM and leaving your precious baby alone for the first time w/a new person is not an easy thing either for you or your baby. Also remember, that for this nanny this is also a new situation as well since she and your baby have to get to know each other and bond this week, etc. They have their own dynamic to deal w/too. It could be that you are just a nervous FTM or it also could be that this nanny may not be the right fit for your family. None of us responding to your post will be able to adequately know. Do what you feel is right. If you can make it work, then by all means, take the time off work this week if it makes you feel better. If this nanny didn't really do anything neglectful or abusive, it would be wrong to not compensate her for the week if you already agreed to give her a week's job. However, the hour being late to me is a good reason enough because for her first week that is pretty serious. What will you do when your little guy goes to daycare? You will be unable to monitor him in there. I hate to tell you this, but I am pretty sure your nanny took much better care of him and gave him more one-on-one attention then he will get in a daycare. In a daycare, he will get less attention since there will be multiple children to look after. Just understand this.[/quote]
