^ jaan leva that’s just pathetic.
DAMSEL - what are you worried about? any specific?
You need to set up routine/schedule for 1 year old and the caregiver. I believe it’s your mom right? Look at the milestones that your baby needs to meet developmentally and have your mom follow those things like reading, or playing. Mind you this doesn’t need to be done 24x7.
Like for eating time - can you mom put her in a high chair and have her eat baby snacks by herself.
It’s important for you and the care giver to be on the same page about the routine of the baby. Good luck - I know it’s not easy.
