[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mom of twins here. One thing that really helped was my nanny saying things to me directly like, "We really need to figure out how to babyproof the house because they are getting bigger and they need more space, particularly as winter approaches. Can we babyproof the XXX room and put a baby gate or two in the doorways?" As a mom who was not normally home with them by myself, I didn't get whatever the current challenge was because I wasn't seeing it. The other thing is that as FTPs, you don't really get how quickly needs changed. What worked last winter isn't going to work this winter. It's helpful to have that spelled out.[/quote] I'm a mom of younger twins and I'd second this. I am really not aware of what works and what doesn't during a "normal" day as I am just not around and we tend too be out and about or playing man-on-man defense on the weekends. I'd appreciate my nanny telling me what we need to address (whether it's babyproofing or supplies or clothing that is needed) because it might be something I didn't notice or hadn't thought about![/quote]
