I think this is very natural and common to feel this way. Unfortunately for us working mummies, there is always this dilemma and guilt. What you can try to do is to spend as much time as you can with your kid when you are at home. This minimises the contact that your helper has with your child. It is inevitable that your kid will be attached to your helper but think of it positively. Your helper is helping you to care for your child while you are out at work. When you reach home, take over this job from your helper and spend quality time with your child to 'make up' for lost time. Shower her with love and care and your child will love you for it. Don't worry too much. Kids do know who is their mother. :)
