[quote=Anonymous]She's a mother's helper, not a nanny. You likely pay her a lower rate, and it is to be expected that she will need more oversight. You should definitely sit her down and talk to her about your issues, if for no other reason than to help her improve for future jobs. Even if childcare isn't what she plans to do, there are universal truths about all jobs, and cleaning up after yourself is one. I wouldn't fault her for not being able to understand your three year old, some of them speak a totally different language, you just happen to know her better. Try to remember that your helper is 17, will naturally need your guidance, and you probably got a good deal on child care for the summer. [/quote]
