[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, it was ridiculous the stroller was messy in the first place. My nanny would have been embarrassed if I had to ask. And yes, if you’re out for an hour and she’s chilling, you can absolutely leave her a list of child-related chores. [/quote] You can do this if you want vti be looking for a new nanny. [/quote] I think sometimes nannies get bent out of shape (understandably) because of the long history of domestic labor being undervalued and nannies being taken advantage of. So nannies may be overly sensitive about requests like this. If you think of it in more general terms… an employee at your business has nothing to do for an hour. They plan on spending it in the break room scrolling their phone. You ask them to clean up from a presentation they gave earlier in the day. Seems completely reasonable, no?[/quote]
