[quote=Anonymous]I think that this is something you and nanny are just not on the same page with. You can sit down with her and talk about wanting to conserve things, etc., but ultimately, the difference between going to crazy lengths and being insanely cheap and simply trying to practice basic frugality is a judgement call, and she doesn't seem to share your judgement. If it's to the point where this is an ongoing problem, then you should probably replace her. Unrelatedly, if she is only caring for one child and the child doesn't have any special needs or major behavior issues, she should be able to run to the store now and then. It's not in a typical nanny description to do major grocery shopping, but she should at least be willing to replenish things that she has used herself (although, frankly, I wouldn't trust her with much money with her attitude).[/quote]
