[quote=Anonymous]To boil it down, the nanny you hired is disregarding your desire/explicit directive to stay off her phone around baby. If you have discussed this with her already, it is time for a come to Jesus warning. If you haven't already discussed it, you need to explicitly tell her what you expect and if the NCS don't change then have the come to Jesus talk. If she can't or won't follow a basic rule, she is not the nanny you want.

The agency - does their fee equal a % of the yearly wages for the candidate hired? If so, that's why they told everyone the max rate you could pay. Regardless, tell them to not discuss anything but a rate range if you can't find a better agency.

Babies absorb everything. Unless they are showing that they are overstimulated, I am playing, narrating, reading, singing, cuddling, and so forth. At 6 months it's important to have conversations with baby to demonstrate give and take too.  Yes, a little quiet time is also good, and I give them that, but to not bother to interact much because they are "just babies" is not excellent nanny behavior. [/quote]
