[quote=Anonymous]We’re hiring someone who will watch my daughter when she’s not in preschool, and to make sure the person has enough hours, she’ll be employed w us one day a week when our child is in school, so the nanny has no child care duties. On this day she’ll be expected to do more “house manager” things (her words). I can imagine her running errands, folding clothes, and doing simple cooking. How is it best for the cooking to work logistically? Should I plan on reimbursing her for groceries she buys or is it better that I get a list of ingredients for her upfront? Sometimes I’ll give her a recipe to make but she’s a good cook and we don’t have dietary requirements so other times I’ll ask her to make a meal we can put in the fridge for later. I know the key to a good relationship here is clarity so any ideas how to approach this task would be very helpful so I can provide clear perimeters and we’re all happy. TIA![/quote]
