How to wean off yaolan?

Hi, my bb is now 2.5 months. Previously I had no choice but to put her in yaolan after 1 month, as once she's put down in cot she will be awake or sleep for very short while. Sometimes even if I carry her to sleep, she will be awake with my slight movement. Now that she's slightly bigger, I have tried to put her to sleep in a non-moving yaolan. I will manual bounce until she's drowsy, and stop bouncing and and pat her butt to slp and she manage to fall asleep. when she stirs, I will pat her again. I have also tried putting her in cot and pat her but she fusses and cry. Night time after she fall asleep, we will transfer her to cot. Daytime mostly she naps in yaolan. My concern is that I'm afraid she won't be able to fall asleep without it if we go out, or short staycay. Anyone has experience? When do they start to learn to fall asleep on their own or when is a good time for them to wean off relying on motion to fall asleep? Any one has experience?

Sleeping arrangement during confinement

Hi mummies, I have hired a CL and the tentative sleeping arrangement will be me+nanny+baby in the master room. I do not have extra spare room as my in laws stay with me. My hubby will sleep at living room for the one month. Will it be ok for the nanny to share the same bed with me? As my master room still need to place the baby cot, and will only have space for a foldable mattress ( put on floor kind) if I do not share bed with the nanny. I read from the contract that it is best for the Nanny to have mattress with bedframe. If unable to have bedframe, then at least a 3 inch thick mattress. Any advises or things to consider? Thanks!!
