She wants the baby to experiece sleeping/being in places outside of the home so he gets used to it. She sometimes even comes along on our shopping "adventures", so in other words, I do sometimes get paid to shop.

I took all the children to a parade, and a fire truck with sirens didn't disturb her... and guess what! I didnt give her any drugs! *gasp*! you don't know this child. if you were concerned enough you could have talked to her right there, and tried to wake the baby yourself. this just seems like a cowardly way to try and get someone in trouble... i do think that maybe she should be more careful in a busy store keeping the stroller next to her, but then again, based on the rest of your observations, i'm not too worried about her neglecting the child.. after all you were there to make sure everyone was safe right...you need a moniker!noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-87756633368725765462010-06-27T13:04:41.347-04:002010-06-27T13:04:41.347-04:00I really find it appalling that someone would make...I really find it appalling that someone would make such spurious accusations with so little evidence. As someone else said, babies' breathing is shallow compared to adults, and some babies can sleep through anything. Nanny could have been nervous for any number of reasons- maybe because she was shopping with her charge, maybe because she left the stroller for a minute to check out. Those are issues that could also be debated, but to assume that the nanny got nervous because she drugged the child? Based on a few minutes of observing the child sleep? That's simply alarmist.unbelievablenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-14419185535838049412010-06-26T23:47:47.060-04:002010-06-26T23:47:47.060-04:00I have a cousin that fell asleep and slept for 3 h...I have a cousin that fell asleep and slept for 3 hours in a bowling ally.

It does not mean the child is drugged and it doesn't mean the child should have been at home asleep. <br /><br />When you only allow a child to sleep in their own crib and not in the car seat, the stroller, the pack and play, someone elses house ect you are setting you're setting your child up to ONLY sleep in his crib/bed. If they are allowed to sleep in other places then it makes life easier.

I'm a nanny of 2 under 2 and the youngest (who is 3 months old) sleeps like that, even at a crowded pool when I am in the water with him in the front carrier. <br /><br />His sister who is now 19 months was the same way and STILL sleeps very soundly in loud, crowded areas when she is tired enough. <br /><br />That being said, I've been to H&M, anon, and things are not usually 10$ and under...<br /><br />I fail to see how her purchase total has anything to do with her ability to care for the children. <br /><br />This posting reminds me of the gossipy neighbor from bewitched. <br /><br /><br />RE: Parents hire a nanny so their baby can have naps at home no?<br />This baby should be napping at home in his crib not in a stroller.<br />And it's a known fact- many so called nannies give children tylonal and benadryl so they will be knocked out.<br /><br /><br />1. My family would rather me have the children nap while driving and taking them out or in the stroller. Some parents (and since were making ridiculous generalizations here, I'm going to go with A LOT) actually prefer their children to be out and about, even if sleeping. <br /><br />2. I'd love to see your "facts" and evidence of this being a huge epidemic. I'm a nanny, I know a lot of nannies and I can say without a doubt that I've never met a nanny who has done this. I'm sure parents have never done it though, like ever in history. (And clearly this anon has a hard time understanding complex concepts, so I'm letting you know, yes, that was sarcasm.) <br /><br />About the breathing aspect: <br /><br />Clearly the anons, OP and "Lindsey" (very sock puppety to me) haven't cared for young children before. As a natural worrier, I notice any change in breathing in the youngest (as I did with the oldest when she was this age) and if he is sleeping very soundly, I often stick my finger under his nose. Babies do weird things. <br /><br />And to the other anon: really? You know this about all children? On most days my 19 month old takes a 2 1/2 - 3 1/2 hour. At 9 months? Kid napped probably 4-6 hours (though some take multiple naps rather than 1.) <br /><br /><br />Pretty sure that not attacking nannies and making ludicrous assumptions based on some bad apples falls under the same rule of "not attacking OP."mismatchmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00336329048649224366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-4632737954614383332010-06-26T13:30:03.347-04:002010-06-26T13:30:03.347-04:00Actually this OP says she saw the woman while she ...Actually this OP says she saw the woman while she (OP) was waiting for a dressing room and the nanny took the child down the elevator. She saw her again while waiting in line (1- 1.5 hrs later by her own account) to pay. So the baby could have woken up in that time or slept the whole time. She observed the baby deeply sleeping while the nanny walked by her to get in an elevator and then again for 20 min while in line. Who knows how much the child moved or didn't move in the 2 hrs because the OP didn't see them the whole time-by her own account. My children were both deep sleepers and my son would sleep for 2-3 hours a day when he was 2 and under.

My son napped for easily 2 hours at a time when he was as old as 2, though he went down to only one nap a day at about that time. <br /><br />I think most parents hire nannies not so that their pnly child can nap in their own bed ecach day, but so that their child(ren) can be well taken care of while they are unable to be there. By your logic, older siblings of a 6 month old child would be required to always be at home during the baby's nap times (so much for preschool, school, playgroups, classes or outdoor playdates!).

I am a full time nanny and the baby that i care for has slept through it all, bus rides with people bumping into his stroller, kids screaming and the bus being lifted up and down for the elderly (it makes a high beeping noise when it goes up and down), he has slept through an entire doctors appointment where the doctor gave him a complete physical and checked in his ears (which he hates more than anything!) <br />The fact that you stared at this woman looking for something to complain about and point out is absurd. This isn't a bad nanny at all, also the fact that she is shopping while he is sleeping isn't awful either. I know plenty of nannies, myself included where our bosses say its ok to run errands that we need to run so long as the baby is happy and its not every day.

My charge, who is 11 months old, take at least one 2-3 hour nap a day. <br />I would also like to add to all of the posters who are saying that babies ALWAYS move when they are asleep. He is in a stroller, how can you expect him to be all over the place during the nap. The OP stated that she stared at them for a short period of time, so because she didn't see any movement in that short period of time, doesn't mean he was drugged. I think this post is ridiculous, and for all of you who are agreeing with the fact that you think the baby may be drugged or doped, you are just adding fuel to the fire.SD Nannynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-14988694250208372862010-06-26T07:55:17.952-04:002010-06-26T07:55:17.952-04:00I also have to add,

Honestly, if it were my child and someone was even the least bit suspicious I would want to know and I would like to think any parent would feel the same way about their own children. So I say good on OP. I for one think it is odd that he didn't move. Most children (especially at the age of 9-12 months) are all over the place in their cribs with lots of movement while they are sleeping.
