[quote=Anonymous]By initially cleaning up their messes in the beginning, you set a precedent so now they think they can be more lax when you aren't around, then assume you will just clean up after them when you have the time. FYI, I am not blaming you one bit, this is totally on THEM!!

In my opinion, the nanny is only responsible for cleaning up any messes such as scattered toys, dirty dishes & any spills, etc. made during her shift. Any messes made prior to her arrival are the responsibility of the family.

If a nanny elects to clean up any prior messes during her stay, then the family should be grateful and take that as a benefit...Not something that is to be expected from then on.

Since you feel that talking to the parents may make things worse, my best advice to you is to focus on only cleaning up what was messed up while you were there. If the parents balk at this, ask them for a meeting to look over your contract + state to them that this wasn't outlined as a job duty upon hire.

If they tell you this is a typical and common-sense duty for nannies, kindly disagree.

Good luck.[/quote]
