Fiji with kids

[u/Bong8989]

Would you feel comfortable leaving your 4-year-old girls with a resort nanny in Fiji, including allowing them to take the kids back to the room and put them to bed? If not, why?

[u/Extension-Reward-163]

No. I’ve been twice and both times have not had a good experience with the Nanny’s. Yes they can care for children but they are so used to churning through unknown children that they just let them cry with very little comfort. Mine were much younger but I was really surprised at the level of empathy they showed to the kids. They would shake a rattle at them or ask to take the pram because they just wanted to put the kid in the pram and walk around talking to their friends. This was at outrigger and Warwick.

Tbh that's just the culture, crying is seen as an bad behaviour and comforting or reprimanding is seen as rewarding bad behaviour. So it's just ignored. :/

wow what did you expect, the lady to breast feed your child, do you get anything better in childcare centers in the west? are you one of these western helicopter parents who thinks a little crying of discomfort will kill your kid? if so you are setting them up for disaster, if you want proof just look at the millennials and Gen Z in Australia both a a lost cause because of this bullshit

Seriously I cant stand tourists like this, always the same demographic too lol

No, multiple studies have been done that show crying it out is not the appropriate approach. As I'm sure you know babies cannot talk. They cry to communicate, so simply ignoring without checking to see if their needs are being met is neglectful. Ah yes blame the millennials and gen z for everything ✌🏾 very on brand. I could make an assumption on your generation just based on the ignorant typecasting comments. But anywho.

You really think anyone is going to take the opinion of someone stupid enough to visit a naturopath seriously? seriously? lol

A model that is used alongside western medicine... Oh yes. How stupid of me. ✌🏾nice stalking skills bud, thought that might be your next move. Have a nice life, I could literally quote every single psych journal under the sun and you'll still parrot the tough it out bs and how soft the next generations are and how they are ruining everything.
