[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nanny here.  A good nanny can be a lifesaver.  
My tasks:
All kid laundry (towels and bedding too)
Weekly grocery run
Weekly dry cleaning run
I prep all kid food (including homemade purees for the baby and leaving leftovers for the weekends) and I make family dinner 3 nights per week.
I make sure there is always toilet paper and baby wipes and paper towels
I manage all the random emails about school field trips, snack sign up, soccer games, ballet performances, etc.
I keep the family calendar updated with important dates and set up kid appointments and make sure everyone has their vaccinations and dentist checkups and all that stuff.
I manage the kids’ wardrobes.  I shop off-season sales and rotate clothes each season and measure their feet and buy new shoes and winter coats and swim suits each year.

Basically I take on as much as possible of the logistical/mental load of parenting.  My employers come home to kids who are bathed and ready to sit down to a family dinner and do the bedtime routine.[/quote]
Oh my gosh - can I hire you??  Seriously this level of help sounds amazing. [/quote]
