[quote=Anonymous]OP, this would not be ok with me.  Both because it would not be ok with me to be hanging out with my baby at her house for up to an hour every day when I'm paying her to engage with my kids, but also because she's being sneaky about it.

"MB, do you mind if I drop by my house for a bit today to drop off/pick up/check on/whatever?"  Sure, no problem at all.

But she knows it's wrong, otherwise she would have said something.  And she's now proven herself to be the type of person that will go ahead and do something she knows is wrong as long as you don't find out about it.  Not a good quality in a nanny.

I'd ask her about - "Nanny, we've noticed that you're dropping by your house during the day, but it isn't listed on the log.  Can you explain?"  Her answer will tell you what you need to do.

But this would be a big negative in my book and I'd probably never recover the trust.  You need honesty and integrity in a nanny in order to feel comfortable leaving your children with them.  I can't imagine an answer she could give that I would be like "ohhhh ok, that makes total sense."  Why wouldn't she have let you know or at least put it in the log, especially if she's there for up to an hour sometimes?[/quote]
