Ways to Communicate with Nanny

Mama's favorite lil tech toy can help keep track of her lil one's schedule thanks to some trusty apps. Baby Connect ($5) keeps track of baby's feedings, diapers, growth, and more, even creating graphs to show her progress. Best of all, the information can be exported to email for sharing and printing.

Pros: This app is truly the most comprehensive way to log a child's daily activities, and the trending graphs are a great way to see progress. The ability to share information also makes it easy for multiple caregivers to communicate about the day.

Cons: Both mom and nanny have to have an iPhone or handheld email capability to use the app to its fullest potential, though one could record it on the app, with the other filling in the rest on a printout.
