She helps with diaper changes, holds the diaper, watches etc. She gets tons of praise and I give her one on one when I can. I would suggest you put her down first and give her the cuddles after nap before you get the other kids and let her help you with getting the others up.
Unfortunately she sleeps the longest so is never up before the others. She loves her sleep. I do the cuddles first then put her down so that I can get the others up after their nap time and let her sleep till she wakes. When she is the last to wake she missed me having to go get the others so starts off without a screaming meltdown, which is a bonus.
