[quote=Anonymous]As a MB, I try really hard to make sure the house is in a clean and tidy state when a nanny or babysitter starts work. It's not always easy but I do find it's a two-way street, so that on those days that life has been too hectic the nanny will usually help out if time allows (e.g. load dishwasher, pick up stuff in living room). I'm a neat freak but have still forgotten a dirty diaper by the change table when dealing with an upset child or distracted by a ringing phone. Maybe they were just exhausted and/or cleaning up all that stuff might have made them late for work? If this happens to me, I also try to make sure to say sorry or thanks, but in the midst of a busy life sometimes the niceties fall by the wayside a bit. If they were consistently messy and not regretful about the mess/ungrateful for the help, this would definitely be an issue, but it doesn't sound like this is the case?[/quote]
