[quote=Anonymous]Yeah, this babysitter sounds amazing.

That being said, you're the boss. If your preference is that she not do such things, it's fine to tell her next time. "I'd prefer if you didn't clean or do laundry while you're here, and rather just focused on the boys."

The only thing that's somewhat of a red flag is the bath. You say she "wasn't supposed to" - does that mean you said "they don't need baths, they should just go to bed" and she did anyway? If so, that's weird (unless he liked rolled in mud or something). But if you never discussed baths, it's not crazy. It's totally fine to say "please do not bathe the children."

Bottom line: An employee should listen to your direct instructions, and if told not to do something, should not do that thing. But going above and beyond when things aren't specifically discussed is a good thing.

Also - particularly if you're going to specifically tell someone not to clean, you need to make sure you're leaving them a reasonable clean place for them to hang out with the kids and play with them. [/quote]
