[quote=Anonymous]OP, you either become a SAHP, or you are going to relinquish some control. Yes, you could put cameras in every room and micromanage constantly, but a) at that level of involvement you may as well stay home and b) the clown car of revolving door nannies that would lead to is much worse than some occasional tv. If you are open to letting go, start by figuring out what a truly competitive wage is for your area and offer at least that. Interview extensively and have a detailed contract so that you have plenty of time to see that you are both on the same page. If your nanny is working 40-50 hours a week, then no screens/no sugar is pretty reasonable. If you are one of those families with a 70-hour per week nanny, then you may need to adjust to more realistic expectations. [/quote]
