[quote=Anonymous]MB here. I've known a lot of other moms who agreed to provide food for the nanny, only to find the arrangement problematic and a source of tension. The scenario that seems to work well for both families and nannies is to offer drinks and certain snacks and access to a few pantry staples on an emergency basis (e.g. a can of tuna or boxed pasta with red sauce that she can prepare if she forgets or doesn't have time to bring lunch some day). Beyond that, the nanny is asked bring in her own meals or groceries. In most of these cases, the nanny is either given dedicated space in the refrigerator or marks her items in some way (e.g., with her initials), so she doesn't have to scramble to pack a lunch each day. If a nanny is cooking from scratch for school-aged kids, especially at dinner time, the expectations might shift. In that case, I would expect to provide enough of whatever she's cooking to feed her as well as the kids. [/quote]
