[quote=Anonymous]It is wonderful but also humbling to have a child speak better than you in your second language. My older son corrects me (with my blessing) when I make a mistake. Dh and I sometimes say things wrong on purpose so the kids find it hilarious "put on your carrots so we can outside!" Then they "teach" us the right thing to say. You can do this but you need to support the target language with books too. 4 mo is early enough for the nanny to go whole hog.tell her to absolutely not repeat herself in English. [/quote]
