ooh quick - new nanny/mothers help coming around in 20 mins

[Tutter]

has been for an interview/first meeting

she's coming back to spend a bit of time with ds1

what shall i do? back off and leave them to it?

(not yet formally offered job but expect to after today)

[Tutter]

yes and yes, jura, thanks for asking

feeling optimistic - she's young, bright, friendly and seems to really like ds1 (feelings mutual it appears)

when my DTs first met their nanny at 18 months, they cried when she left

[Tutter]

(he was very excited when she arrived - a good sign)

I think you have to back off so you can see how they will interact when you're not around as far as realistically possible.

[Tutter]

thanks jura

they're out in the garden together now - he seems unconcerned about me coming and going
