[quote=Anonymous]You obviously don't have direct reports at work! A good boss always is sensitive to the ego and feelings of their employees. If you cannot do this, put the kids in childcare and hire a weekly cleaning service. Our nanny did the basics with the kids - care, food, homework, THEIR laundry (not ours). Our maid (not housekeeper) does our laundry, bed/kitchen/bath linens, floors, dusting, and deeper cleaning. Our kids are older now, so we don't have a nanny anymore (she moved, we would have kept her otherwise). A housekeeper would do lighter cleaning, not deep cleaning, and more organizational tasks, like grocery shopping, or other errands. We didn't/don't have a housekeeper. These are very clear distinct job descriptions. Very occasionally we asked our nanny to pick up groceries that we pre-ordered online, but we never asked her to shop for us.[/quote]
