[quote=Anonymous]we currently have a "help yourself" policy but it has gotten out of control. 
Not because of costs (which are not insignificant) but because it has negatively affected quality of care and has become a PITA for me (shop and pick up nanny food).

1) she only makes herself "hot" lunches, so spends 30-60 minutes solely chopping up veg, chicken, salmon, boiling pastas, and then eats it. meanwhile, the toddler runs around the house and only gets Mac & Cheese or bread for lunch.

2) I find myself having to buy two sets of vegetables a week for her, plus protein (chicken, salmon, tofu). I try to buy bulk, section it out into freezer bags, but this is getting too tedious and we are extremely busy, because...

3) ...We have a new baby now and seeing our nanny neglect two children while she cooks herself a hot breakfast or big hot lunch and then sits on the counter stool eating it breaks my heart.

I see it as much more professional to bring your own lunch, and if possible show up having eaten breakfast.  
There is a BIG difference between grabbing an apple or making quick sandwich once in awhile and focusing on the kids, VERSUS using their freezer supply of meats for your main meal of the day and focusing on yourself. [/quote]
