NO NANNY IN THE TIGER

WOODS' HOUSEHOLD:

"TEAMWORK BETWEEN

ELIN AND MYSELF"

Do you think Tiger Woods wakes up in the middle of the night to feed his baby a bottle and change her nappies?
Well, he does!
Woods told the golf writers at Torrey Pines Golf Club in California last week that he and his wife, Elin, aren’t using a nanny and he shares in the night-time duties. Elin was at last week's tournament with Sam, their seven-month-old daughter.
“We’re probably going to (get a nanny) shortly, but we didn’t want to do that at the very beginning,” Woods said.
“This is our daughter. We wanted to experience it. We wanted to work through it. We wanted to do it ourselves. More than anything it was teamwork between Elin and myself.
"Some nights I take the all-nighter or she'll take the all-nighter, and that's how we did it. We never had nannies in our families. Elin's mother and dad had three kids within 13 months (Elin’s a twin), and my mom and my dad couldn't afford to have someone take care of me, so they were always there.
"That's how we wanted to raise Sam. Now things are getting a little more difficult. Elin is doing some school stuff now, so that's going to be a little bit more difficult now. But we do it ourselves. Sam cries at night, one of us gets it and gives her the bottle, whatever we need to do, and stay up.
"Sometimes it's two o'clock in the morning and you stay up for 26 hours, 28 hours, whatever it is. But when you love something so much, you do that. It's just normal.”
