[quote=Anonymous]Hello there. This is for the beautiful mother who posted the original question.

Hope you and your son are past the Nanny issue. I wanted to check with you on how did it go with you later and what steps you took to handle this situation?

I am a mother of 4 months old son and an engineer by profession. I too WFH in pandemic. I have a live-in Nanny who is exactly like what you mentioned about your Nanny. Mine also tells me not to kiss the boy on his face, tells me super stupid suggestions on my house stuff and childcare. It's hard for her to stay focus on only child care and wants to be included in house. I completely understand she is trying to help, but I am capable of handling my life and home and pushback on everything she says. In early days when I let her do what she wanted ( gardening, light house stuff etc) , she started taking decision without asking my approval, even with the kid. Example bringing her own cleaning liquid to wash baby bottle instead of using the one I bought..

I now keep my communication with her short and business like.. Only relevant to the topic being discussed.

Honestly, I do get exhausted mentally with this situation and may not continue after her 6 months contract or request her to work as live-out Nanny. She may not like it, in which case I may find a new helper. [/quote]
