[quote=Anonymous]I am a nanny for a WAHM. This is the first family I have worked for with a parent in the home. It definitely took a little getting used to, but by sitting down day one and putting boundaries in place, it has worked out really well. Just make it clear that you respect the nanny's role while she is in charge. I am in charge of discipline and decision making while I am on the clock despite MB being in the home, They respect my space greatly and allow me to run the day the way I would if the parents were not home. The most difficult thing for me has been the kids wanting to see mom and dad while they are working. DB would set up his work in the dining room originally, right in the middle of the house where the kids and I are getting ready for our day. This was not realistic, the kids were pound and wanted to talk to dad who was sitting right there. It is easier when the kids know that mom and dad are in their offices and it is work time.[/quote]
