[quote=nannydebsays]The more your child is able to go out and see the world, the happier and more intellectually stimulated she will be. I know it's hard to let go a bit, but I truly think your nanny is in need of occasional adult chat, and your daughter will benefit greatly from being out in the world AND from having a happier nanny. And yes, I know many people believe that there is a day every few months when a baby/toddler will wake up and suddenly begin to behave perfectly at storytime, music class, the playground, and bigger outings, but that's baloney. Children learn by doing. If they are DOING storytime, they have the chance to learn the various behaviors expected during storytime. It's a process, much like learning to enjoy books and being read to. Start young, encourage the behaviors you want, encourage baby to have fun, and you'll generally wind up with a kid who has decent behavior/listening skills in all sorts of situations. [/quote]
