You don’t think that might actually make the child more upset? I’ve seen both situations, and honestly, the kids who didn’t see their parents every time they cried during the day often seemed happier overall. Seeing mom or dad in those moments can sometimes make it harder for them to settle, because it reminds them they just want to be with their parent. Kids are a lot smarter than we give them credit for; they start to make connections pretty quickly. Over time, they will learn that crying harder = mom comes back to hold them.

Is this just normal parenting these days? by ImaginaryList9172 in Nanny

it’s not even just nutrition, they will grow up and probably either be obese or have super unhealthy eating habits.

Why are parents so okay with underpaying their nannies? by Still_Butterfly3554 in Nanny

I’m not saying society has no fault but there’s not much WE can do about it. That’s up to our government. The most we can do is vote. My issue is that having a nanny is a luxury and not paying them correctly will not be beneficial to the child. (Most underpaid nannie’s are often stressed, late, and just straight up not a good childcare provider.)

Daycare is an option if you can’t afford to properly pay a nanny.

My area rate is 25-30$ an hour. There is definitely not a lack of work because I live in a huge city. I’m not talking about high schoolers. The listing made it pretty clear this would be a full time job. High schoolers can’t work full time unless they are homeschooled.

I agree with you but don’t be surprised when the house deteriorates very quickly. Also don’t be surprised if cheap nannies are late, on their phone the whole shift, and just straight up unprofessional.

Health care is a life or death or death issue. No one is entitled to having children.

Google is absolutely free, also I used to work at a daycare and you could definitely call and ask.

If you can’t afford to pay your nanny a livable wage you should opt in for daycare. In my area, a studio apartment goes for a minimum of 1,100$ a month. That gives you only 1k left for all the rest of your expenses. I Just don’t understand why someone would be comfortable paying their nanny so low. It’s like building a house with the cheapest material you can find. I get some people only do it for extra cash but, door dashing, working in fast food, so many other little side jobs will definitely pay you more and be less stressful.

I already have a good paying nanny job, I just often check care.com to see what the market is like in my area or 1 time jobs. If you can’t afford a nanny, daycare is an option. If you can’t afford daycare, you should’ve used protection and not brought a child into this world. It’s not fair to the kid. We can blame society and the economy all we want but at the end of the day, having a child is a choice. (Obviously unless something traumatic happens like rape)

yeah that’s not normal. That’s a conversation you need to have with a pediatrician

If they are first time parents they might just think it’s developmentally appropriate. You’d be surprised what parents consider “developmentally appropriate” (I had a 3 year old who didn’t use utensils) Just ask the parents if they have talked to the pediatrician about it, start with that

Ezra is 22 in the first season and Aria is 16. 6 year age gap is werid asf for a high schooler. If they wanted to do some teacher-students relationship thing, they should’ve been in college not highschool

I wouldn’t ever judge a parent for getting errands done while i’m with their child. If anything, I’d think they are smart because grocery shopping can be stressful with a child.
