[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Clean up after yourself very, very well. I had to fire a nanny who was excellent with the kids, totally qualified on paper, but would NOT stop bringing food into her bedroom and leaving dishes and crumbs and food wrappers all over there. When you use the kitchen wash dishes and cooking implements right after you finish eating, and if you must bring food into your room eat carefully and clean up after yourself. Do not leave your clothes in the washing machine or dryer for long periods of time. Twice, our nanny left for the weekend leaving her undergarments in the washer, and DH was the only one home so he had to take them out to do laundry during a flu. Find a good balance between spending time with the family and giving them space without you. We had one nanny who used to house and pet-sit for her friend almost every other weekend and it gave us all a break from each other. Make sure any guests you have are respectful and courteous when they come over. [/quote] As long as EVERYONE is on the same page about this stuff, you'll be ahead of the game.[/quote]
