[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I understand that you would like a Nanny who interacts, stimulates + teaches your son..... However at six months this can be a little tough. Babies at this age need multiple feedings, diaper changes, soothing as well as lots of comfort when they cry. These are the main needs that need fulfilling. A tummy time where Nanny lies on the floor & speaks, sings, reads and plays w/him are nice but not something to be expected for the entire time he is awake. It is ideal to do tummy time when he is well-rested, fed and dry. Say for 20 minutes or so. Then perhaps some time in the baby swing and/or a walk in the stroller. I wouldn’t expect any Nanny to sing and read to my baby for the entire three hours he is awake. However it is your son and if you honestly are not 100% satisfied w/your child’s caregiver then you know you have every right in the world to replace her. Especially if you are paying a high salary for her. Contact the agency and see if they can assist you in finding a replacement. They should want their clients to be 110% satisfied. Good luck.[/quote] A sensory bin for a 6 month old will keep his attention for 2 mins, then he'll want to throw everything or try and it eat. It's pointless. What do you do with your 6mo when you are with him all day- same as nanny? Either way, I don't agree with you 100% BUT it's your baby and you should feel satisfied with the service. [/quote]
