For the last 7 months we've worked with two doulas both
for night help and some day help 3 x week. We are now
looking for full time nannies. We interviewed
candidates and liked 2, so embarked into 3-day trials
with each. The first we aborted after day 2.What I need
is some help with is the distress I feel having someone
new in the house. It is unavoidable if we are to have a
new caregiver, I know. Yet I feel tense. Today is day 1
of trial #2, and I feel less tense than with the first
person, but still I notice I am mentally and physically
exhausted. Some of it is that I am (rightfully) asked
about specifics on how the house and baby routines run,
and I notice a lot of what we do we just do, that is,
there is a base behaviour and a bunch of exceptions
depending on how the babies are doing. Somehow I feel
judged. Foo.Could you share with me your experience
with nanny trials? What worked for you?
Thanks,Alessandra
