[quote=Anonymous]I'm the triplet nanny who you responded to before. That was my only post, so wasn't the same person on page 1.

Honestly it's hard to give advice without knowing the babies and more information.  How many weeks were they born at? Any health concerns? Do they share and sleep in the same room? What does she do when she wakes up before him? What time do they get up in the morning? Do they sleep through the night?

If keeping them on the same schedule is a priority for your MB, then I think you need to brainstorm and experiment with different schedules to find something that works for both of them.  Off the top of my head maybe moving nap time to 11:30 would work? Or possible giving her a short morning nap early like 8:30/9 am of 1 sleep cycle would help her be able to make it to a longer afternoon nap and still give you time for morning outings.  Right now she sounds constantly overtired, which is contributing to her overall crankiness and being more difficult.  Think about how you feel when you are overtired over a long period of time and that's exactly how she feels.

I personally couldn't continue to work for someone who wasn't giving growing babies enough sleep.  It's so crucial to brain development, that it is something that I need to be on the same page with my NF about.
