2 year old refusing to let one parent do anything - help!

Our daughter is 26 months old and over the last month has begun to develop an issue with one parent doing anything. So many times with undressing, getting food out the cupboard etc it's "I don't like mummy doing that, daddy do it" or "I don't like mummy making my bath" etc.

It's sometimes so much that when she's mostly undressed she'll put all her clothes back on because she wants either herself to do it or someone else to do it!

Anyone have any advice or tips to reason with little ones on this?! Sometimes explaining that parents help eachother works but very rarely 😂

Thank you!

Wonder if anyone has any tips or similar experiences for this? Still finding it happen often - mummy can't open the door, daddy can't do the bath etc etc.
