[quote=Anonymous]I’m confused on why the baby is in a diaper only. Is baby a messy eater and nanny is trying to keep clothes clean?  If so, I’d thank the nanny for thinking ahead and saving me time trying to get stains out and money on new clothes.

Or is this supposed to be some punishment because baby is a picky eater?  That’s messed up and I’d probably fire her before she gets a chance to permanently f up my baby’s relationship with food.

I guess I’d start by just asking the nanny why the baby is only in a diaper and go from there.

On a completely different note, OP, it is a common request of nannies that parents steer clear during their shift. I totally get it. My nanny said the same thing and I agreed. Over time I grew to resent it - after all it’s my baby and if I have an extra 30 minutes in my day, why can’t I go see her?! - and I wish I could tell you that I came up with a great compromise but I didn’t. Instead I gradually shifted to being a quasi-SAHM with work sprinkled in and using mothers helpers, who would work beside me. It’s been a lot better for me and my kids. At the same time, I think part of what drives parents to want to pop in for 15 minutes here and there is working mom guilt. Hugs OP - it’s hard!!![/quote]
