This probably won't come as a huge surprise considering that she had to deliver her baby in a custom birthing suite, but there is a rumor that Beyonce has hired not one, but six nannies to help take care of baby Blue Ivy!
Good grief! What on earth is she going to do with twelve extra hands? Doesn't she realize that she only has one baby?
If this story is true, then it sounds like Beyonce has no interest in being a hands-on mom. Has she even changed that little girl's diaper yet? Supposedly part of the reason she uses six nannies is so baby Blue Ivy is treated to a fresh diaper every single hour. Wow. It definitely doesn't suck to be Beyonce's kid. Where do I sign up?
I imagine that Bey's typical day is quite different from that of a regular mom, with a timeline that looks something like this:
6 a.m
Beyonce is just coming home after a night out on the town with Jay-Z. She passes by one of the night nannies and one of morning nannies as they swap duties for the day.
Regular mom is super-psyched because she got to sleep in. Yes, 6 a.m. counts as sleeping in.
9 a.m.
Regular mom has already fed and changed the baby three times, cleaned the kitchen, threw in a couple loads of laundry, and is preparing to get the kid down for a nap so that she can hopefully grab that shower she hasn't taken in two days.
Beyonce, on the other hand, is still in bed getting her beauty rest.
12 p.m.
Beyonce wakes up, eats a salad, and then takes a nap.
Regular mom shoves whatever scraps are leftover on the highchair down her throat, cleans the kitchen again, and then starts thinking about what to make for dinner that night.
5 p.m.
Regular mom gets a casserole into the oven, and puts the baby into the bath, at which point her husband calls and tells her not to wait up because he's grabbing drinks with the guys after work. She curses him under her breath, dries the baby off, eats some of the casserole anyway, and pours a fat glass of wine.
Beyonce heads to the salon to get her hair and nails done, and then the limo picks her up to go meet Jay-Z for dinner. She tells the chauffeur what a perfect husband and father he is.
8 p.m.
Beyonce skips dessert and leaves for the club.
Regular mom passes out on the couch and hopes for an hour or two of sleep before the first nighttime feeding. And by the time the feeding rolls around, Beyonce is still out getting her dance on.
Yeah — maybe she needs all six of those nannies after all.
Would you hire multiple people to help with your baby if you could afford it?
