[quote=Anonymous]Being a nanny is caring for a child. Period. No ifs, ands or buts people. Have you ever seen the comedy show, "The Nanny?" She cared for the children, but didn't clean the house. They had a separate housecleaner who did all of that. Have you watched "Supernanny?" Did Jo Frost ever clean the house?? Of course not. She was too busy w/those kids. Nannies care for the kids. Keeping a child well fed, in a clean/dry diaper, well rested, entertained, educated, clean, safe and happy is a HUGE job. People need to understand this. Adding dishwashing, laundry and mopping/sweeping duties to it only takes away from the care one person can give a child. It's common sense to leave the house better than when you came and wash the dishes the child uses as well as pick up his toys, but to expect to prep the family's dinner or do the laundry is absurd. Then they are no longer just the nanny. Then they venture into The Cook, The Laundress territory.[/quote]
