[quote=Anonymous]As a nanny, I agree it’s a bad look to be on your phone that much, especially on your first day. If it were me, I would have been trying to get to know your child, their interests, talking with them, and just studying their general demeanor and play style. With that being said, independent play is such an important skill. She wasn’t ignoring or neglecting your child. But, I would keep a close eye on it. Sorry to say it probably won’t get better if she’s doing this on day one. Once I’ve been with a family for a little while is when I feel comfortable being on my phone scheduling play dates and researching activities and events. That way I have a better idea of who the child gets along with/prefers to play with, what activities they like, what kind of events they may enjoy, etc. [/quote]
