It is common for the eldest one to be jealous of the younger one.
It is the parents' job to instill the thinking of - You are also the gem of our eyes.We are also giving you extra responsibility to take care of the younger sister.Now that you are an elder sister,you have the job to protect and teach all the good to the younger sister.
With that, leave sometime to let her take care of the younger one. With close supervision like hiding at one corner of course. That would inculcate the thought of she has a "subordinate" under her now that she has to take care of, instead of someone here to share the love of her parents.
You should really start now before it's too late. It's sometimes the parents' fault when siblings are not close to each other. Parents find it hard to juggle because it's their first time and eventually love and interest are lost to one of them.It is particularly clearer in bigger family.
Good Luck!

Its only natural. She had you all to herself for three years. Now suddenly she has to share you. It may help if you allow her to help you with the younger sibling so that the 5 year old doesn't grow to resent her and you. Make sure you set aside a special time just for the five year old. Example: allow her to stay up 30 minutes later and spend that time reading or playing with her. It is important that she be included. Sometimes, as parents, we find ourselves giving more attention to the younger children, who need it, but then forget about the older ones, who also need it, but in a different way. Good luck.

The best thing to do is to have her help you do things for the younger ones. Also very very important to make time for just her. Let dad or grandma or someone, watch the little ones and go do something with the oldest one. Do this once a week and things will start to improve..... Good Luck

involve her in the younger childs care. Have the five year old help bathe the 2 year old. Give her a chore to do with a 25 cent allowance.
Or just take charge as a mother and dont let your five-year-old dictate how your run your house!

It's natural for her to be jealous. I was jealous of my baby sis when she was born... All of us were (cept for the baby lol) Make time for her. When you put the young one to sleep make it a special time for just you & her :) She won't feel so neglected if she gets special time w/ you. Also, allow her to help you w/ chores & such. No better time to "train" her to clean up than now ! I know of a fam who cleans their place & it is SPOTLESS all the time. The mom taught her 2 daughters to clean up after every speck of dust, etc. If you're gonna be doing some baking maybe she can help you w/ that :) Something that she can handle. Let her know that she's your little helper. W/ a title like that & all the help that you've been given she's bound to feel special. Good luck !!! :)

Give her some big girl chores to do. Sweep the floor, fold towels, dust. Tell her that only she can help Mommy because only she is old enough. Make it special for her to be Mommy's helper and you will see a difference.

Maybe she feels that you love her 2 yr old more than you love the 5 yr old. You should explain to her that you love both of them the same. Or spend time with both of them!
