[quote=Anonymous]I think you can educate your child about making healthy food choices as long as YOU the parent model healthy eating. It is not the duty nor should it be the duty for a nanny to be a role model for eating her veggies. She is an adult and it is entirely up to her to eat whatever she wants. As a parent, you can teach your child about nutrition and practice what you preach. Everything else is out of your control. If they ask why the nanny eats cheetos and bologna sandwiches, you can explain that while you advocate for healthy eating, not everyone does and that it is a personal choice which diet to follow. If healthy eating is SO freakin' important to your boss, then it is her responsibility to provide your meals. She can't dictate how or what you should eat, then not provide you with food. If she wants her kids to see you eat healthy, then she NEEDS to provide the healthy food for you to eat in front of her kids. Believe me, this is micromanaging at its worst. Even if you started bringing in celery and spinach for lunch, it wouldn't solve a thing. She would just be telling you how to dress, how to speak and so on. She is a control "Type A" freak and needs to leave you alone!!!!![/quote]
