[quote=Anonymous]The “solid” two-hour nap is not really so. Your child may have a bad dream, hear a loud noise or just outgrow his nap. Unless your Nanny can get those two free hours guaranteed solid every workday, then she is on-the-clock & technically still working. She is on-call should your child need her during this time. Sure, she should wash any dishes used during her stay as well as clean up any crumbs the child leaves. Also toys should always be picked up + put back in their place so the parents can come home to a calm vs. chaotic household. Let her use any downtime to relax. Mother Nature has it set up that younger children nap more since their caretakers are obviously doing more work thus needing more rest time. Try not to stretch out your dollar to the point that your Nanny is assigned little “chores” here + there. It wouldn’t be fair to her and your child will have a worn out & possibly resentful provider. :([/quote]
