[quote=Anonymous]I think it is great of you to allow your nanny to take your DS out and about, and I also think that in appropriate settings/amounts of time out it is very beneficial for your child. I agree with PP who said that a good nanny will naturally cut down on time spent on adult activities once your DS is older because it is very hard to do certain things with a baby who just wants to get out, move around and play. I don't think your nanny should be going out to lunch every single day or running errands that often, but a little bit can never hurt. I mean most parents take their kids to the store and to lunch at one point or another. I think a huge problem for families with nannies is wanting 100% attention on their child at all times, and that is not how things work when the child is school aged or in the working world. Your kids need to learn that when their caregiver is in a conversation with another adult that they should be polite and respectful, and I think your nanny going out helps with that. [/quote]
