[quote=Anonymous]There is a special category of visa that allows US citizen to temporarily bring domestic worker who worked for the US citizen abroad to continue the same duties in US. OP is correct that it is B1 visa but with a special mark that is put in the embassy that indeed allows her work only for the US citizen. Several things needs to be proven in the embassy to obtain such a visa,  and OP probably researched that subject well. So no one has to lie to anyone about anything.

The screen idea like other PP suggested is a good one in my mind, and should work for the basement. Amazon.com has some cheap ones.

I also want to note that depending on nanny's culture there might be not as much expectation of privacy for her as we might be used to in the US, and it is totally up to the nanny if she doesn't mind living in the basement for a few months. Also, private bathroom is a significant luxury in many countries. Growing up in a large family oversees we had 1 bathroom for 8 people, and somehow survived. The nanny might be happy to get an opportunity to see US, even if it causes some inconveniences. Over the years, I had distant relatives visiting me from my country, and sometimes we had less than perfect sleeping arrangements, but no one ever complained and always expressed their gratitude.

Again, I'm hoping that OP described the situation to the nanny, and nanny still wants to come, I'm not sure why we people are so critical of OP.
