Just reassure her that it's only temporary. I had my nanny shadow me for a week before she started. (I was on leave of absence, so I could afford the luxury.) It wasn't uncomfortable though cause my nanny is a mom herself, and a darn good one. If anything, she was telling me how to improve MY performance LOL. that’s hard.

It's like he has to perform as the "mistreated son" if mom is around. My advice ('cause I know you want it, lol): get a nanny cam and watch her that way. Oh, and if it smells rotten, it usually is - so if you can't shake the bad feelings, find a new nanny. Better safe than sorry. Personally I have found that the more I stay, the worse my kid gets.
