There's also language learning YouTubes or documentaries about seagulls or just about anything you can think up where the kid isn't being drawn into a tug of war about sleeping or not but is just having quiet downtime. Nannies need not be entertaining every minute FFS. It's good to be able to have some reflection and introspection, and it helps them learn when they say they " need to have an alone minute to think "(you can still be there but if you model it they will copy it eventually). Also good for them to learn that other people need a minute too, for them to not be entirely self-focused.
