[quote=Anonymous]Taking care of three kids is exhausting, and some days, just taking care of the two older ones is a lot. She's taking a break, eating her lunch, fooling around on the computer, chatting with me, etc.. Sometimes she'll fold laundry or empty the dishwasher. Honestly, most days, it works out to about an hour give or take without kids, and once she picks up from lunch and tidies a bit, it's not that much time. It is worth it to me, though, because it means I can leave during that time if I need to for an appointment or something, and if my oldest decides not to nap, no big deal. As for it being awkward, you just work out what works for you. This nanny is very friendly and chatty, which was actually hard for me at first (I've learned to just go do something else). Our first one would often go nap in the playroom or read a book, and our second one would put on her earbuds and watch something on her computer. [/quote]
