[quote=Anonymous]Op, are you still reading? My nanny surprised me by saying that she prefers it when I WAH, that it's less boring. I regularly WAH a few days and I was nervous this would annoy nannys and so I have been respectful and kept my distance. She has also said she really likes that I give her a lot of discretion, as her prior MB had strict schedules and rules. But during the search process, I have come across candidates that don't seem to like the idea of me WAH. The key is to find whose personality meshes with yours, someone who won't annoy you, just as much as some nannies might screen out WAH MBs. I am very introverted and I could not have a talkative nanny who engaged me while I WAH or wanted to have lunch together every day or something. First identify the personality you want. Then when you interview, ask the are you ok with me WAH question over the phone to screen out the ones that seem hesitant about it. There are nannies that are totally fine with it, despite the impression you get here on DCUM. I met maybe 10 candidates, 8 said it didn't matter to them that I WAH 2-3 times a week.[/quote]
