[quote=Anonymous]Live-in nanny here.

A basement with her bedroom and bathroom is the minimum.  Yes, please have your husband move his sports watching upstairs, the living room is now hers.

Use the home gym during her work hours or while she’s using the kitchen.

No kids in the playroom on weekends until she’s awake, but any nanny who has lived in before knows that kids run everywhere in the morning on weekend mornings, so there’s no sleeping in.

Free access to the kitchen except the 30 minutes before you start cooking.  You need to be consistent about cooking ties or text her if you flex times.  Mini fridge and microwave on a table in the basement living room.

Reasonable additions to the grocery list and free access to anything you purchase (if you need a certain amount for a meal, put a sticky note on it or buy extra).

The basement should have a door at the top of the steps and a separate egress.  Her bedroom should have two legal exits (the door is one).

If you want the nanny to effectively quarantine, you need to help at her to stay home.[/quote]
