I attribute my similar problem to generation gap more than language barrier, but
it might be a "take care of babies in accordance with latest research" vs. "take
care of babies the way it's been done for generations" gap.

I do agree that you can have an otherwise very good caregiver who would simply
never think of an issue that we moms might agonize for hours over. Extremely
frustrating, but it doesn't mean the nanny is a bad one.
