do you know anyone who has been on Three Day Nanny?

they strike me as a bit mumsnet

Is it on now? They were filming it in the next street to me recently, but I think they said it would be shown in the autumn.

NOW

Anyone watch last night? Fertility treatment leading to triplets now 2.5, a 15 month old, and her partner left after the youngest was born. I was just in awe that she managed at all and her children were lovely, house and kids both tidier than mine and I only have twins! I was really glad that the nanny was able to help her solve some of those problems (bedtime battles, one of the girls wanting carried everywhere) that are very difficult to tackle when you're on your own and outnumbered. But I felt like they could have dialed back on the usual schtick of "I've watched you for a day and here is where you're doing it wrong". I mean, there were definitely things she could do differently to make it an easier job, but I hate the implication that solo parenting of 4 under 3s can be reduced to anything other than a heroic act of parenting.
