Re: child care
The baby's Mother could sign a specific power of attorney giving the grandmother authority to do everything necessary to care for the child. If you go this route, the Mother would need to do this once every year for so long as everyone was in agreement. Mother would still have legal custody of the baby and could revoke the power of attorney at any time.
