[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mother and MIL grew up with a full house staff in large homes. In my family, the housemaids lived in the top floor garret. The governess lived next to the girls' bedrooms on the third floor. My grandparents lived on the second floor, that also had guest rooms. My great-grandparents has a wing of the first floor. Rest of first floor was salons and dining room. Kitchen was in the basement. Now they're in much smaller places: my mother hates having anyone come in and even refuses a cleaning lady, and my MIL has a rotation of aides that cook and clean for her, but they don't live in her house. The night nurse stays overnight, but doesn't "live" in the house. I would love a daily maid, but I'm also a private person and would prefer she live in a separate building.[/quote] Are you a Vanderbilt?[/quote] No, European aristocracy. Castles, etc.[/quote]
