[quote=Anonymous]Sometimes people are micromanaged because they need to be.  If the baby gets diaper rashes because he/she isn't getting changed often enough - it may warrant a parent being explicit about timing of diaper changes, allowing to airdry to clear a rash, etc.  As the saying goes, common sense isn't always common and not everybody has the best judgement. 
 There are some amazing nannies out there; but there are plenty of other ones who are not particularly nice to the children in private or knowledgeable about recommended pediatric practices (would you want a nanny who doesn't know how to safely put a child to sleep?  They may have raised multiple children a certain way, but research and practices have progressed).

Other than staying at home, OP can also consider daycare, especially if the child is a little older.  A high quality one where Supervisors and staff are educated in child development, where there are activities, socialization, and schedules.  In some cases, it is better than trying to manage someone.  [/quote]
