You need a life outside of your job.

She kind of reminds me of the nanny on the movie The Hand That Rocks The Cradle.

I would be annoyed if you asked me that. After spending all day at work away from my baby, I want one-on-one time with her. I want you to leave so I can get out of my work clothes and relax with my baby.

Quit and stay home and if you cannot afford to quit, then you should not have had a child.

Sounds a little creepy to me! Like she wants him for herself.

No, that's inappropriate. I worked from home one day a week from the time my first child was born and when I'd nurse the nanny would leave the room to give us privacy. "I'll go fold some laundry/give the dog some attention/re-stock the changing table so you two can bond."

You should just tell her, "Would you please give us some privacy while I'm nursing? We'll come out when we're finished."

And shut her down on waiting until 1 yr to give cow's milk. "You know Nanny, I'm planning to nurse past one year. Babies don't NEED cow's milk at all.

Shut her down on dramatic goodbyes. "Nanny, I'd prefer that the goodbyes are low-key and subtle, so Baby is not upset at the transitions."

And if she doesn't stop I'd get more direct. "Nanny, it seems like you're trying to get Baby to love you more, and want to think of him like your own. Please take it down a notch." But if I got to the point that I said that, I'd be looking for a new nanny.

Your nanny's behavior is inappropriate. I would let her go and start interviewing new nannies. It's harsh. I admit it. BUT..you need someone that is the right fit for your entire family, not just the baby. At this point, you know that her judgment is lacking, to say the least. She hasn't been with you long enough at this point to have a strong bond with your baby. If the baby was older, or she had been with you for 6+ months, I would encourage you to give her the opportunity to change. Now I think a fresh start would probably be best. When you are interviewing ask them what they do to encourage the bond between the parents and the children. Make sure to be open about why you are letting this nanny go. I am a nanny. I consider building the relationship between the parents and my charge to be one of the most important parts of my job.

I'm Hispanic and I get paid very good, have OT, holidays and vacations paid. I had nanny jobs for $15 per hour befire but is alright. I loved thier kids and I felt very appreciated and welcomed. Sometimes is better to find a good family and not a bad family who pays well.

"Get paid very good"... *I am paid very well.

Do you also teach these kids your English? You get what you pay for.

You are jealous so Quit your job and take care if your own child

She honestly shouldn’t be in the room when you nurse DC.

I always leave when my employers are nursing. 1) It’s distracting. 2) it’s invasive

I’d ask nanny to take a break while you nurse.

You have a very unprofessional nanny, OP. You can talk to her about it, set better boundaries (like being alone with him when nursing, relieving her quickly, staying away when she is working) etc. But to send him to a daycare institution because you hired poorly/communicate poorly is s terrible price for your child to pay.
