[quote=Anonymous]The only thing that may be a-typical is the linens.

Im a nanny and for my light housework these are my duties:
 childs laundry, childs room (swiffer/vaccum/keep it tidy.) my charge is 7 so he cleans his room but I help with the big stuff. I also change and wash his bedding as needed. I cook him dinner when we get home (easy kid food type stuff) and I sweep and mop the kitchen when it needs it (about 2 times a week)

It isn't in my contract but I also tidy the living room and entry way since my charge plays in those areas I consider them my responsibility.

Loading and unloading the dishwasher are not in my contract but if I see it is full of clean dishes I unload it or if there are dishes in the sink I handle them. My MB is alway appreciative because she gets home late so it is one less thing for her to do which means more time to spend with her son. I think when we renegotiate my contract we will add the dishwasher to it. There has only been 2 days where I saw it was clean but did not unload it and that was because my charge had a busy day.

My first responsibility is to my charge and then the housework happens if we have time for it (which I normally do. I do most of it while he is eating his dinner).
