Never thought this sort of thing would bother me - but grandchild prefers other Nan to me.

I do everything I can to make her happy, always happy to see her etc etc, she sees other Nan same amount of time as she sees me so it’s not a ‘spends more time’ issue.
She just prefers her to me?
4 years old so actually says things like ‘ I want to go to other Nanny’s’ ‘ if I baby sit for example.
Anyone else experienced this?
I will obviously just ignore it & carry on as before, but it does kind of hurt a bit.

Nothing wrong with a bit of bribery Moonlighttchwink]

I’m a good few miles away from both sets of GC so I think it’s a given that they will see more of their other grandparents and therefore be closer. But hopefully they will continue to look forward to coming to see us as they get older and see we love them and are fun grandparents to be with.

Kandinski - could you ask your granddaughter what she likes doing at her other grans. You could then see if you could do something similar (or even better).
