[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH and I are admittedly both clean-freaks.  Our apartment is spotless with “a place for everything and everything in it’s place”.  We’re expecting our first baby and have decided to go with a good nanny.  One fantastic nanny we interviewed talked about doing art with the baby when he’s older and going to a nearby park with a huge sand pit.  She talked about sensory bins and homemade play dough. DH and I both had the same neurotic thought about what a mess it all would be!  I know it’s nuts but how much cleaning up after the child can we hope for in a nanny?  [/quote]

Have you any experience with  children?  Most of them are like "Pigpen" in Charlie Brown.  The bigger the mess, the happier they are.  You are going to drive this nanny crazy so be prepared to get a new nanny every few months.  I suggest you learn to lighten up.  As my children got older, my rule was they could keep their rooms anyway they liked but no food but all community rooms had to be picked up.  Lighten up.[/quote]
