I'm sorry, but I don't think you were put into a boarding school at age five.
Were you?

Ask the former nanny to please come and visit your child. Maybe ask new nanny if she'd like to take your child out to lunch to meet up with former nanny. Ask former nanny what she'd feel most comfortable with.
OP, please do this for your OWN child
who is grieving serious loss. PLEASE.
The therapy bills and mental instability down the road,
will be much more costly to you,
if you choose not to.
I guarantee it.
I've been around long enough to see this happen more than once.
You haven't?
If you are interested, you can study the about the repercussions of severed attachments early in life. It's quite sad for an infant or young child, in particular when it was a primary caregiver.
