[quote=Anonymous]Our nanny has been with us for eight years. Aside from needing her for the near constant school holidays and sick days, there is no way my kids could be involved in after school sports, play dates and lessons without her. Our nanny continues to do the kids laundry and their meal preparation. She became our house manager when the kids were little - handling all supply ordering, payment for housecleaning service, getting the handyman for repairs, keeping up with the payments and scheduling for the kids activities, grocery shopping for family staples (milk, juice, eggs, etc), taking care of our dog during the day. I have friends with kids in aftercare who are always scrambling and running around at lunch or at night getting the special socks their kid needs tomorrow for gym class or the gallon of milk not to mention when their child wakes up with a fever at 6AM and they have important 8AM meetings that day. Tell your DH to take over the default parent position and take off work for the dentist and wellness visits as well as the sick days, school holidays if he doesn't think your nanny is worth the cost.
