Experienced nannies talk

23.04.2010Ludmila, Alina’s nanny (2.8 years old)

Alina tries to put on a doll’s boots on her feet. Nanny: “Alina, your foot won’t fit in the boot only your nose can fit into such a small boot!”. Alina: “But my nose doesn’t come off in order to place into the boot.”

Today we sat to have lunch with Arina and I poured water into her children’s glass. Arisha, picking up the glass, said: “Natasha let’s ‘glass’ [drink] to our health”.
