[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It can be very difficult having the parents work from home and this has become quite common with the pandemic and some moms even quitting. I’ve never literally ran out on someone as that seems unprofessional unless the circumstances were truly insane. What crazy things did your wife do? [/quote]

OP here,

I am watching the kids and my wife is working in the basement until we hire a new nanny or daycare. I talk to the nanny yesterday and she basically said, dw is not a nice person and she’s unable to work with parents in her space. I completely understand her. A few things she mention that dear wife was doing are:

Assisting with diaper change, telling Nanny to wipe gently, using diaper rash Cream, and please hold baby for five minute until the cream dries off before putting the diaper on, assisting two year old to use the potty and telling her not to use baby wipes, but please use toilet paper, and water to wash, taking babies temperature and telling nanny, She’s doing it wrong and many more. I talked with my wife and I told her if you feel the nanny is not doing such a good job, then you need to decide if you want to stay home yourself and take care of the children. She’s thinking about it and she would let me know when she has decided.[/quote]

Sounds like she’s not really ready for a nanny because you have to give up 95% of that control when nanny is working and only step in if something is dangerous or to stay on the same page about something. Nobody wants a boss telling them how to do their job every step of the way, she might be a better sahm for awhile. [/quote]
