[quote=Anonymous]Live-in nanny here. I have several thoughts: 1. A comforter doesn’t help unless she’s in bed. Ask if she’d like an electric blanket or micro fleece. Either is lighter weight than a comforter and can be used out of bed. 2. Electric space heaters are fine if they’re up to current code. Unless you’re providing an old kerosene heater with a possibility of carbon monoxide or an old electric unit with no safety features, I don’t see the issue. 3. Ask if she has sweaters or sweatshirts. 4. Switch bedrooms immediately. You know the room is several degrees colder, she’s prone to being chilled and you’d be too warm if you turn up the heat. 5. However, my big question is simple: you’re posting this at the end of MAY. What temperature do you set on your thermostat? Have you considered that many nannies might have issues next winter if you keep the thermostat set too low for their room?[/quote]
