When A Child Doesn't Like You

When A Child Doesn't Like You1 sep36 min

Charlotte, Charlie and Millie discuss the difficult and sometimes uncomfortable reality of being a nanny when a child simply doesn’t seem to like you.

Is it something the nanny is doing? Is it about the child? Or is there something deeper going on? The girls explore how a child’s emotions and personal circumstances can affect their relationship with a nanny — from separation from a parent to feeling unsettled, anxious or lacking control.

They also discuss how to begin a new role and find the right balance between setting clear boundaries and allowing the relationship to develop naturally. The conversation explores how they personally build bonds with children, negotiate boundaries and respond sympathetically to difficult emotions.

Finally, they look at the powerful role parents can play and how the language they use about a nanny and the childcare arrangement can significantly influence how a child feels.

A thoughtful conversation about navigating rejection, building trust and remembering that sometimes, it isn’t personal.

Charlotte’s Dms

We’ve just experienced a mad heatwave in London and most of the country to be fair. This is likely to happen again next year. What are reasonable adjustments to ask our boss for.
