[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a nanny who also manages the house and I am having issues dealing with the new housekeeper who comes three times a week. Previous housekeepers have always done their work based on the children’s schedules. This new housekeeper either doesn’t understand or simply doesn’t care and is often cleaning the baby’s room when it’s time for her nap or vacuums outside her door during nap. She also speaks loudly on her phone when the baby is napping. She tells me the day before that she’s out of a cleaning supply so I don’t have time to order it and have to run out on my own time to get it. She gets angry if I have to walk across a wet floor to change a poo diaper. The worst is that she clearly favors the baby to the three-year-old despite his attempts to show her something or tell her something. She looks right past him when he’s talking to her to coo over the baby. I need to handle this on my own and not involve my employers. She really is the best housekeeper they’ve ever had in terms of cleaning so letting her go is not an option. Her English isn’t good and I depend on translating apps to communicate. Please advise! [/quote] 1) you can clean the baby's room so it gets done when its convenient for you. 2) you should not walk across a wet floor. Get diapers from the diaper bag or another location. you are RUDE1 3) the kids are your responsibility. Its not her job to entertain them. A coo is a second vs. talking to a 3 year old can be minutes. 4) when you grocery shop/order things, just double check to make sure there are enough cleaning supplies. 5) she is doing her job. you need to be more flexible. [/quote] You’re wrong on every count! [/quote] You sound difficult. They need a new nanny.[/quote]
