I have worked as a professional nanny for over twenty years, and I find your scientific approach to this matter to be the most compelling and logical explanation. Your insights, grounded in scientific principles, are highly appreciated. Additionally, gaining a parental perspective on the issue was enlightening. As nannies, it is essential for us to approach parents with understanding and grace. I believe that ensuring children are well-fed, bathed, and following a structured routine at the end of the day can benefit both parents and children. This approach can promote relaxation, allowing parents to engage in enjoyable activities such as cuddling and playing with their little ones.
I have worked as a teacher and also as a Nanny. As an authoritative nanny, children behave better with us because they trust us with who the are more. Children behave according to who is around them so there is no "better" or "worse" behabiour when it comes to children. They mirror the behaviours and tollerance of the adults that are around them, and act accordingly. Is part if their instincts. Respecting boundaries is a big part of rising children and in my 10 years working with families I have observed that parents either dont know how to enforce respect and boundaries, or have not ben taught how to do it within themselves in the mayority of times. True they like to say "my child is well behaved" when they in fact are performimg so that mommy or daddy dont get mad. But deep down they know that the nanny is the one doing most the emotional investment, boundary setting and structure creation in the child's life. It is a complex relationship because nannies are not supposed to have this role in children's lives, they are there to reimforce the parents parenting styles. Parents should be able to spend time setting boundaries no matter the time of day and I truly find unacceptable when parents say they don't have time to enforce boundaries or to read to them, spen quality time after work and create a nurturing environment where they can be themselves. I have helped many parents achieve this with authoritative parenting skills building. It is possible to create a balanced relationship with children when parents are aware of how their behaviour influences their children's. Thanks for the thought provoking video 😊
