[quote=Anonymous]This is really common in UMC areas, OP. We still pay our nanny for 40 hours/week, but I’m okay with the fact that she doesn’t work that much these days. It’s important to be really honest about what you need and see if she is happy with that. Our nanny was happy to stay with out family, but friends have had nannies who really really want to be with babies or young kids full-time, so they’ve moved into new jobs as kids went to school. That’s a totally legitimate choice. Talk to her about what types of tasks you’d like her to take on and see if that is workable. Our nanny does laundry, light cleaning (mostly straightening up and wiping down the kitchen ), errands and grocery shopping, etc. She then picks up the kids after school and manages activities/play dates/homework. Sometimes she starts dinner or feeds the kids. [/quote]
