[quote=Anonymous]In a share I think that what you can demand may be more limited. I have twins and a nanny. Among her responsibilities are their laundry, keeping their play/sleeping areas tidy, meals, etc... So she can juggle those responsibilites however she sees fit - whether she does them when the kids are napping, or whether she naps when they're napping. (Something I'm always trying to encourage her to do!) I would suggest a light hand with this subject. Full time nannying is a hard job, and it will get more demanding as the 6 month olds start turning into toddlers, dropping a nap, being more mobile, etc... I would be inclined to let her relax during nap time (assuming all basic work like bottles, feeding, bathing, etc... are handled) and not focus on being sure she's actively working every single moment. We all need time to rest when caring for little kids. So some leniency and understanding might really pay off for you in the long run. Just my two cents...[/quote]
