[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think this is something you can teach, but FYI there are tons of nannies out there who are on top of everything and won't struggle to accomplish basic tasks.[/quote] This. Efficiency and timeliness and seeing things that need to be done and doing them are often innate. We have a great nanny who manages to get so much done when the baby naps. She just multitasks and used time very very efficiently. Dishes are washed right after a meal while baby sits in high hair and plays with a you or claps. They make a game of it for less than 10 minutes. I told her to relax and not worry about things except the baby and baby things like heating up food and bottles and baby laundry every couple days. But she's very energetic and doesn't like to sit still. I thank her for all the extra tasks every day (she manages to mop and vac every day) and try to let her go home early with pay at least once a week in return. [/quote] You most likely aren't the micro-managing type. It sounds like she got into a routine.[/quote] It sounds like one person is capable and the other is not. There is more to being a nanny than being a playmate![/quote]
