Does baby have a lovey? Or another security blanket type item? If not, might be a nice time to introduce one. My daughter had a hard time warming up to our nanny when we first hired her, but snuggling with her lovey would help calm her. I would wear lovey in my shirt so it smelled like me. She’d start playing clutching lovey and as she got more comfortable, she’d totally forget about lovey and just interact with nanny 1:1.
He doesn't but I will introduce one - thank you !!
Anyway you can get the nanny and baby outside doing activities like walking ( stroller) and or water play etc? Also, don’t play into her yearning for you. ( obviously assuming her basic needs are met). Hand her to nanny and walk away. Don’t coddle as much as you may want too. Sorry you are going through it. I promise you it’s harder on you than baby.

Yep, agree! My kids LOVE my mom. Like she is their favorite caregiver by far. But it took some time for them to get to know each other and for my mom to know baby’s needs and cues.
