[quote=Anonymous]I agree that this is something that you have to clarify at hiring. I'm a nanny that enjoys cooking but I've had parents that range widely in expectations. I've had some parents that cook for their kids and I just heat up leftovers. I've had parents that will buy fruit and such for me to cut up, frozen biggest and meatballs, things like that. And I've had some parents who really gave me the reins and I could give them a grocery list, and on Mondays I would do some actual cooking for the week (homemade meatballs, muffins and quickbreads, casseroles, roasted veggies). Obviously, the more intense the cooking expected the higher the rate I would expect. What would be irritating is a family that hires me, says nothing about cooking, then expects scratch made meals. Also, if you want nanny to cook, have food for her to cook with. If your fridge is empty and all you have is Cheerios and bananas, what else am I supposed to feed your kid?[/quote]
