[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Professional nannies do not do your housekeeping. People who can afford them, have housekeepers to clean the house.[/quote] I think that depends on what you mean by housekeeping. Yes, most people who can afford a professional nanny have someone else whose job it is to clean the house. Often that someone else is a cleaning service that comes in weekly or bi-monthly. Many dual-career professional families need additional housekeeping help with things like laundry, daily tidying, sweeping between cleaning service visits, and family meal prep. It is not uncommon for professional nannies to do some or all of this, especially when they work with school-aged children.[/quote] School-aged children need to fold their own laundry, not the housekeeper.[/quote] I work with school-age children and frankly, I wouldn't want them to do it during the week. The parents are never home and the kids are over-scheduled. As it is, the kids barely ge their homework done each night.[/quote] What daily household chores do they have?[/quote] Depends on the family. I'm willing to do everything up to full housekeeping, providing that they pay for it, and that it's only while kids are in school. During breaks and summers, the kids do the housework with me, and a portion gets left for the parents to do.[/quote]
