[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter had the same nanny from birth until age 6, she was an excellent nanny and I feared it would be a hard transition when we moved (and had plans in place for phone calls, made photo books for both daughter and nanny to look back at their times together, and based on the advice of a counselor I consulted about the move gave them the same stuffed animal that my daughter could cuddle knowing nanny had the same one). I was really surprised about how quickly my daughter adjusted to the nanny's departure. [/quote]

You handled it so well!  What really worked in your benefit was moving out of the environment she shared with her nanny and the fact that she was older.  Very different than my situation where our nanny just left us and we stayed with our three year old having the same life she shared with nanny - but without nanny.  Nanny was her nearly 45 hour a week caregiver and buddy since birth.  I would have loved if the nanny wanted to see her occasionally as I know it’s really hurt my daughter.  We handled it wrong too because I was so angry at our nanny just quitting and disappearing.

I know my daughter is feeling the loss.  Kills me.  [/quote]
