[quote=Anonymous]I agree to some extent. I'm surprised by the attitude of some nannies on here (e.g. some posting in the laundry thread) and am grateful that my nannies have never been like this. I do not expect my nanny to do tasks outside of childcare related duties, but I would also find it irritating if she did objected to doing simple, helpful tasks that she easily has time for such as adding handtowels in the kitchen to the laundry she is already doing. I am an employee, in a corporate environment, and it's pretty normal to do tasks that are slightly outside of the "official" tasks in your job description. Sure, if those tasks became the whole job and/or you were asked to work overtime without extra pay to do them - that's unreasonable. But I can't even imagine saying to my boss, "no sorry I won't print those documents because printing is something a secretary should do, I'm overqualified for that and it's outside of my job description."[/quote]
