[quote=Anonymous]We have someone who works four days a week. She was our five day a week nanny when kids were younger. Now kids are all in elementary school.

We still call her the nanny but she has other responsibilities.

She works from about 9:30-5 four days a week. She does a couple of sports drop-offs on her way home in the evenings. Pre-covid, when both parents worked out of the home, she would stay until 6-7 and make dinner for the kids as well. That's no longer needed.

During the day, she does laundry, straightens up, and does all of the shopping. She'll do any other errands we ask her to do, but doesn't really come up with things to do on her own.

If a kid is home sick, she'll supervise, although at current ages they don't really need supervision, just someone to make lunch, etc.

One parent works from home.

She does not do any heavy cleaning. She'll wipe down counters, do dishes, vacuum the mudroom/kitchen with a small dyson, and put things away.

We pay $78k/year for this schedule, which includes health insurance, every federal holiday, and I think 3 weeks of vacation.

You can definitely find people for this kind of work. I think you probably need to exclude heavy cleaning like scrubbing toilets. Hire a cleaning crew for that. It doesn't add much additional expense.[/quote]
