[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nannies, does it bother you to clean up breakfast or dinner dishes if your MB preps a meal and gets the kids started eating before you got there?  Lately, I have been noticing our date night babysitter is not cleaning up the dinner dishes, and I am wondering if it bothers our regular nanny as well that she has to clean up after the breakfast that I made.  
It's not like I am expecting anyone to scrub pots and pans.  It's typically spaghetti or pizza for dinner and cereal or yogurt and fruit for breakfast.  [/quote]

[b]If the children are eating the meal when I arrive, of course I do the dishes.  It is part of my job.  I will not, however, last long in any job where there are dishes or any mess left over from the day or meal before.  [/quote][/b]

This.

I'm an MB.  I virtually never leave the nanny any of our dishes to clean.  But, if the kids are up early enough that I am giving them b'fast when the nanny gets there, then she finishes that up, including clean-up.  Likewise, if the kids aren't done w/ dinner when I get home then the nanny leaves on time and I handle the dinner clean-up.

Neither of us generate huge messes to clean up and we're both thoughtful and careful about how we leave things.  So it works out just fine.  Sometimes I'm putting a dish in the dishwasher that the nanny used.  Sometimes she's sticking my glass from last night in, etc... but it's fully a two way street.[/quote]
