[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You tell her to put on the shopping list what she needs. Can we please grow up a little?[/quote]

this is so unnecessary..  OP is looking for advice, likely because this is new for her.  I would agree with the other poster on certain limits.  I have a p/t nanny and made a huge mistake of telling her to help herself to food in the house and I literally feel like we have a third adult living with us.  She eats all of our expensive salad items, deli meats and leftovers.  We already pay her very well so it's leaving us in a tough spot because groceries are so expensive.  even though she's only p/t she eats enough as if she was here f/t!  my DH thinks she is taking food home with her.

you just need to be very clear and forward.  maybe provide her with a stipend, although most people who work full time don't receive a stipend for food or have breakfast/lunch/dinner provided so i've always wondered why its different for nannies or sitters!!  sorry i'm not trying to offend anyone.
