[quote=Anonymous]Nanny here. It’s not hard to figure things out. When I started with my current families (in a share) nobody knew how to take down the stroller. So guess what I did? Open my YouTube app and put in the name of the stroller and BOOM! Nest thermostats are becoming more common. I had no idea how to work one either but the parents showed me. It’s not hard at all. I’ve come across fancy machines that I’ve never seen nor knew how to work it. Guess what I did? Just guess... opened my YouTube app and BOOM! How is it that the nanny can operate her own iPad but not the one provided by the family? It may be a different generation, but it does the same thing. Op, I would just have HER show you how to use the items that she’s having trouble with since she doesn’t ask questions- this way you’ll know if she understands or not. I would defined be concerned about her driving my child- like you said, what if she puts the seat in wrong and goes to press on the break or makes a turn and the car seat and baby flip over? You basically have two options: continue to go step by step with her and worry everyday or get a new nanny. I am American and I also know of foreign nannies who go above and beyond- so your ethnicity has nothing to do with it. Some people are lazy and it comes out, sometimes sooner than later; especially when they realize they’re being under paid- not that you are but nannies talk. [/quote]
