Helper on phone

I warn my helper 2x.. and told her to put the phone on the dining table , only uses it only during her break time. But I know my 2month old LO, needs to be carried constantly, once u put him down in this bassinet, he cries. So I allow the helper to use the phone to watch movie when my baby is sleeping on her (soundly then to put baby back in his bassinet). Den recently she kept using n using taking it for granted. EG, I’m taking care of baby in the room, and she is using her phone at the living room. I dun wanna b too stern to her, as eventually after ML I’ll b back in workforce, I dun wan her to ill treat my baby. What Shld I do?

If you really trust her and think she did a good job taking care of your lo, talk to her again regarding the use of phone, remind her again you already gave her the freedom but hope she don’t abuse it. If she don’t listen and do it again, I would then advice you to change helper. If a simple instruction she can’t follow, how to trust she will give her 100% when you’re not at home?

Sigh.. just yesterday, she told me baby was sleepy, she will pay him to slp. Next moment I can even hear their voice at the dining table. She is on FaceTime toking so loudly and holding my baby dancing.. I think she is beyond hope. I told her I’m a disappointing manner “u can eat wadever u wan, I’m taking care of the baby most of the time. U only have minimal hse chores to do.. yet u dun appreciate..”. She teared and wanted to hug me.. I walked off.. I’m asking my agent for new candidates. Btw, she used to use the phone (FaceTiming) when feeding, changin diaper, cooking, folding clothes, bathing my LO, moping the floor etc… the only moment is she not on the phone is when she is sleeping.
