[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would everyone feel the same if the nanny has been working in a shorter timeframe than OP and the baby was younger? My baby is almost 6 months and my nanny started less than 8 weeks ago. I still haven't let my nanny venture beyond a couple blocks around the house for short distance walks.  Am I crazy??[/quote]

Yes, you are crazy.  Mostly, however, you are hampering your child's development.  All humans need natural light and air - granted it has been freezing lately but a good hour, hour and a half walk in decent weather (about 50 degrees) would do your baby good.  Your baby should be experiencing the noises and people around him.  [/quote]

According to you I'm not crazy...it's been below freezing most days. I'm just not ready for her to take him to local classes, activities, or storytimes. I still think he gets over stimulated.[/quote]

Not the PP but unless there is something developmentally wrong with your baby, he cannot get overstimulated.  Human infants are programmed to accept the stimulation around them and either block it out or let it in.  You should let your nanny take your baby to storytime and local activities - it would be good for him.  [/quote]
