[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a nanny.

My advice for the parents ...

Be on time as much as possible (let us know when you can't so we can plan)

Be respectful and don't ask things that aren't part of our job (like cleaning up after yourself ie your coffee mug in the morning), we'll probably do these things anyway if you're a nice employer but don't expect it

Let us know when we do something you don't like, don't let it escalate until it really bothers you

What would really annoy me is that somebody can't handle dealing with my coffee mug in my house.  It's bad enough when nannies are above taking care of minor household items even though they are at the house all day.  What would be even worse is it they were inconvenienced by a dirty coffee mug. To answer the OPs question, you already sound like a nice person - you don't have to stress about this.  Just be yourself and it will be fine. [/quote]

NP here.  As a nanny, it’s the principle not the occasional act itself.  Plus my employers used to leave half-full coffee mugs where the kids could reach them and I didn’t know they were there until they were spilled.  [/quote]
