Nanny here: I'm starting a nanny share on Monday for two infants, who coincidentally have the same name. Any suggestions for ways to differentiate when talking about/to them? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

thanks, that's really helpful. Perhaps it is hard to understand but it is already confusing when talking to the parents. [ Reply | More ]

last initials? DS knows several kids in his class as, say Jack M. or Sara B, when there is more than one kid in the class with the same name. He hardly ever calls them by just their first names when talking about them to a third person. [ Reply | More ]
