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?

Handphones is the biggest distraction... My helper took advantage of the handphone flexibility... played a lot of facebook, obsessed with taking selfies. as a result, didnt do some housework properly and keep forgeting some routined jobs. confiscated her phone and only let her use 15 mins every night to video call with her husband and 3 year old child... she has been more productive since then... normal days, contact her through house phone and observe through CCTV... maybe u should try implementing some measures first...if no improvements then change...

I think 15mins is not enough to call her family, you can give her phone at night and its up to her until what time she use as long as she wakes up in the morning to do her job again. If not then you can consider change helper. If a worker not happy emotionally then tendency they cannot do job very well. Just my opinion. :)
