When she wants to bail, distract her with the thing that all 2-3 year olds covet... stickers.

I'm sorry, but she has formed something similar to a mother/daughter attachment to the other woman, likely due to the number of hours they are spending together. This is a byproduct of so many children having to spend as much or more time with daycare providers, than with their own parents. Genetics and evolution has designed us to believe that one of our parents should stay home with us during the developing years. But, economics and the societal beliefs that adults should be working or they are not accomplishing anything, has changed all that.

Unfortunately, it will be a few centuries before we see evolution catch up and evolves a child who no longer desires or needs the presence of a parent or parental role model. For now, you are dealing with one of the consequences. I have no advice on what would work, except for either you or the father staying home with her and not working, or you work separate schedules so that someone is always there for her.

And for those who think that father do not make good stay at home parents, according to the census bureau, more children are being cared for by stay at home dads, than all the children in day care.

One thing you should note is that she has only recently entered the stage at which her brain has developed beyond the capabilities found in lower form animals. This is the ability to process and store large amounts of data. over 10 megabytes a second. She learns through repetition. Everything takes at least six time to become a permanent memory. This includes things you don't want her to do.

Sorry I cannot be of more help.

So, if she does something she should not be doing, and you discipline her, only for her to go back and do it again, it is because she did not remember the last time. Just repeat the same discipline for the same action, until the two things become a permanent memory. Change the discipline, and you have begun the formation of a new memory path, making your job twice as hard. She has no concept of right and wrong, only action and reaction. She will not develop that concept until puberty. And before think your children is a fast learner, Jesus didn't even develop conceptual thought process until age 12.
