[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure if it will help or hurt but MIL physically can't help. She can't lift or carry or change or chase. She can get a glass of milk or bring over a premade plate. So the risk of interference is low. Yes. She can see and be will be "around" but we are clear and she understands that nanny is 100% in charge and does not want or need help. Kids might ask her to be read a book to them when she is sitting in her special chair but they would not go to her to undermine nanny directions - it isn't the dynamic in the house because of her physical limitations. Does that make it less annoying?[/quote] That sounds more doable. Is she physically care able of going out by herself with the eldest? Even if they just go for a drive, it’ll give the eldest some time away from the younger two and it’ll make it clear that she’s willing to be helpful rather than just cataloguing things the nanny the nanny does”wrong.” Like PP, I’ve worked with some grandparents without issue; others were making lists mentally or on paper, am.do not only dd I feel uncomfortable in the moment, then I had to defend every action to the parents later (including why I put a child’s shoes on before their coat :roll: ).
