Hi I ahve 4 children 6,7,9 and 18months. My observation having been thru it all with the older 3 is that there is little point disciplining under 2 and you shoud just let it go. My baby is exceptionally calm and good natured and I have never had a disciplinary incident with her. However my nanny refers to using the naughty step with her??? We had an incident a few months back where the 18 month old thru her bib on the floor (I would judst ignore this) the nanny shouted at the baby to pick it up enough to terrify her and make her cryt hen she gripped her up by her arm and pulled her over to a naughty mat...I was appalled but ashamed to say that I stood back. I broought it up the next day and said that this behaviour amounted was bullying she apologised...but I am struggling to get over this and think I have lsot confidence in her.
