[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Say no.  As a nanny, especially with a degree, you should not do any housework.  If you want to be a nanny, live out and find another position.  [/quote]

I don't see why people are so dogmatic about the no housework thing. I'm a college educated nanny and I do housework. And, I actually don't mind. It's a nice change of pace for a couple hours a day.

I don't view it as beneath me and it doesn't make my job low status. I actually make more money than a lot of my friends with office jobs and a lot of the childcare only nannies I know. If housework isn't your thing that's totally legitimate but I think it's kind of elitist to cast it as automatically "beneath" anyone with a college degree. [/quote]

It is beneath you, PP, and it does make a nanny job low status.  In fact, it is not part of a nanny position at all.  Call it what you will but you are being a fool for cleaning up someone else’s home when you have better options.
