[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any other nannies out there who pretend they can't cook?  I make it clear in the interview I can do basic cooking, but not adult type meals.  MB's in the past have tried to make me cook family meals, hors doeurvs for parties, home made soup, protein bars for them not the kids etc.  so I usually mess up the recipes on purpose, and the job creep with no extra pay stopped.  I've been at each of my jobs 3+ years so I'm not getting fired or not hired at interviews for my lack of 'skills' in the kitchen.  I just think this avoids a ton of extra unpaid work, I'm pretty happy!!  Anyone else?[/quote]

A smart, professional nanny would set guidelines. If you can cook, tell them, but also let them know that cooking for families, holidays, occasions, etc will require extra compensation. Instead of just lying to avoid anything 'above and beyond'..

Are you the same nanny who steals towels and items without feeling bad because you believe you should be getting paid more money?[/quote]
