[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I used to work as a nanny.  For my first  2years after college while saving for grad school.  I lived at home to save money.

I never did housekeeping for the family.  I had a degree in psychology.  I am there to raise the kids the mom didn't want to do herself.

I would have walked out if they asked me to do THEIR family chores.  And they knew it. [/quote]

+1. Former nanny here who has been paid very well. I was never expected to do anything beyond scope of taking care of the child and child related cleaning. I’m not a housekeeper or a house manager. I do not do the parents laundry, take out the trash, or clean their house. I have on many occasions did sweeping/vacuuming and emptied the dishwasher, but nothing beyond that. Too many parents want a nanny and housekeeper in one and then wonder why their nannies quit. Most nanny employers do not pay well enough or give enough respect for a nanny to be cleaning their underwear. Those responsibilities have nothing to do with a nanny. [/quote]

Come on.  Thus isn’t about washing dirty underwear.  
The OP’s nanny told the OP to unload the dishwasher before she went to work.  That’s not typical.  [/quote]
