Starting with a new family is rarely straightforward. Every household is different, every child is individual, and transitions can be challenging. Children may struggle with change, boundaries will almost certainly be tested, and it’s essential to start as you mean to go on — with clarity, consistency, and compassion. The episode offers practical advice to help Nannies fully arm themselves for a strong, successful start. It’s about finding the balance between holding firm boundaries and showing empathy, taking baby steps, and understanding that trust takes time. Charlotte’s DMs Have you ever noticed that children act so much worse when their parents are at home?
