[quote=Anonymous]I'm really sorry because once you start the expectation of you doing it all the time is there. Your employers will get very disgruntled if you stop doing their laundry or w/e because now they have to do it themselves. They will start calculating all the free time they assume you have when baby is napping. 
Nooo don't ever do extra chores to impress them instead do what you are suppose to do to the best of your ability. Then every once in a while do something else but never the same thing let's say in a month. Trust if you ever do something for two weeks straight it will become your job and left for you to do sometimes with subtle hints or bold face instructions.
What I do is tell my employer the the first time they say "Ohhh thank...I smile say you're welcome but don't do it again for a long time...e.g...you do the kids laundry then throw in theirs...they say thank you and are happy because that is something they won't have to do...if you do it the next week and the week after ...they get use to that free time...BUT if you let them do it after  the first time they just enjoy that one freebie they had...
Anyway my only advice to you now since you started doing extra chores is start and don't finish and say you didn't have time..put laundry in wash and dryer don' t fold...run dryer close to their arrival and tell her you doing her a favor by starting her laundry...always let them know that you were helping them...sorry I hope this help[/quote]
