[quote=Anonymous]OP here. A couple of answers:

1) Daughter naps for about two hours a day and thankfully is a good sleeper so nanny can count on having that time. The few times I've been home during the day it seems that nanny takes that time to eat and then either watches shows on her iPad or studies/does homework (she takes night classes). 
2) I do not mind her staying an extra 10-15 minutes. It's not an imposition to us since we truly enjoy her company and even if I want to go outside or for a walk with our daughter now that the weather is nicer, our nanny just locks up behind her. 
3) Yes, she bathes our daughter twice a week. This has been the case since she started with us and has always been written into the contract.

We have not paid her for the extra time because it seems to be a choice she's making to keep naptime free for things she wants/needs to do. This is a semi-regular occurrence, but I think it felt awkward this most recent time because I came home shortly before her ending time and she was still giving DD a bath. I considered poking my head in to say I could take it from here (instead of starting dinner like I did), but honestly I felt like she should have just started 30 minutes earlier to finish on time (and her notes from the day and recap did not indicate anything that prevented them from starting sooner...They were playing at home. There were no sports or activities pick-ups, diaper blowouts, vomit emergencies, or anything of the sort).

For me, my guess is that she likes to take the time to unwind and prioritizes having some downtime over leaving at 5 pm on the dot. I'll ask her directly the next time it happens, but thought I'd just get some feedback as well. [/quote]
