No where specific. There is a playground down the street or they can walk (my toddler will run)/stroll around the neighborhood. He's 2 just being outside in general is enough fun for him! As far as shade, I'm not sure there is any unless she wanted to take him across the street (very small, not a main street) to starbucks and sit under the umbrellas and have a snack there, etc. I don't have specific request just that she takes him out for some fresh air once a week.

Thank you, OP. In view of those details, I would suggest asking the nanny to maintain your "neighborhood walk" routine on her nanny days. Perhaps you establish a morning time, at least on a M-F basis, that your child is out walking for half an hour, say 10-10:30, before it gets too hot. So this gets done every day, M-F. Offer the nanny $5/day to get herself something at Starbucks. Your child can bring a healthy snack from home, and water. What do you think?[/quote]

I've offered to pay for Starbucks should she ever wish to go there. She is also most certainly allowed to take water/snacks from our home as well! [/quote]
