[quote=Anonymous]I am not sure why everyone thinks having a live in nanny means they are working 24/7. I am sure there are situations where this is the case but I think they are the exception to the rule. We converted part of our basement into a nanny suite, she had her own entrance, a kitchenette, and private bath. Over the course of 12 years, we had four nannies and, save the one that was brings up memories of Hand the Rocked the Cradle and tried to seduce my husband, it all worked well for us. if you do not mind taking that risk, I would give it a try. Our last nanny had a master's degree in education and, when we no longer needed a nanny, asked to stay on in our nanny suite in exchange for being our 'date night' childcare. She was part of the family. There has to be ground rules, for the children, parents, and the nanny. My advice would be to set your expectations up front.[/quote]
