[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You will be amazed how a well-organized, self-starting, reliable nanny can change your household dynamic. [/quote] This. Change nannies now. It will make a world of difference. Be very up-front with her that you neeeeeed someone who can effectively manage the children's toys and clutter.[/quote] Look for someone now, OP. Have her work to train the kids in putting things away after school, etc. Have her do the kids laundry and put it away. Get an organizer to help you vastly purge and set up systems THAT ARE USED. Have her come back quarterly for more purging and tweaking of systems. Your role should be that of the household manager, outsource more tasks and minimize what needs to be done. Set up your home more like a preschool, cubbies for backpacks and hooks by the door. A whiteboard for a checklist by the door. Streamline and train the kids along with the nanny reinforcing. [/quote]
