[quote=Anonymous]2 questions. I'm a nanny for an 18 month old, and a 3 year old, and it seems like even when I implement systems for keeping the house as clean as possible, there are periods throughout the day when the house looks like such a mess! Especially when I do more deep cleaning, when I have chairs all moved around for mopping and vaacuuming, and the kids are bringing out all their toys while I clean. I can't help but think OMG if the parents were to walk in right now! But it is feeling impossible to always have the house tidy. Is this true for anybody else? Also, how long can toddlers play together while I clean? In regards to attention span/patience/emotional development. I'm trying to work my cleaning schedule around them. 20 minutes seems much too accommodating for them, but I'm not sure if an hour is too long. What does your chore schedule look like? P.s. Children are always within view and the house is completely child proofed-not a question of safety.[/quote]
