[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]House rules: no shoes, only socks or clean slippers, bring change of clothes to change once at work, and no tv or cellphone while at work, and Quiet while kids are napping. Is this unreasonable to ask a nanny or babysitter to follow? My husband said, I was in the wrong and etc.[/quote]

Many families that I currently work for have a “no shoe” rule in their homes.
I understand if they have nice carpet or flooring that they tend to keep clean.

However the majority of these families have dirty floors & it grosses me out to be barefoot in their homes.
My feet tend to get sticky + my soles usually are black when I get off work.
In these situations, I see zero logic in going barefoot in someone else’s home.

Bringing a change of clothes to immediately change into once I enter an employer’s home is just RUDE.
Unless I am being asked to do it for pet allergies.

No T.V. is kind of understandable however screen time can certainly come in handy if working a really long day.
It’s nice to be able to put the kid(s) in front of the T.V. briefly while I clean up after lunch, etc.

No cellphone use is very unreasonable for a multitude of obvious reasons.
And of course - common sense dictates that a Nanny is always quiet while child is napping.
