[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Yeah, I like to read a book with my coffee, why not? It is not like I "need" it but I do enjoy it a few times a week. Do you think I should ask my employer if I can do their dishes, during nap, or what? I never had a contract with household duties. I enjoy the child and this is where my expertise is. I was not hired to unload a dishwasher. And the nannies I meet at the playgrounds mostly not doing household stuff either, though all look overworked. I do not believe the posts criticizing a nanny are from actual nannies. Nannies usually stick for one another.[/quote]

You…don’t wash the child’s dishes after making them meals? At this point I have to believe you are trolling. I do stick up for other nanny’s but saying you deserve hours of couch time to relax on an 8hr shift makes us look bad. It’s a real job and it takes hard work, it shouldn’t be sitting around relaxing for a fourth of the time.

OP. Do disregard this poster because this is not typical. Being a nanny includes playing with the child AND helping to clean up after the child. What you are asking for is not unreasonable but nannys who are burnt out and not equipped for the job do exist so avoid them. [/quote]
