[quote=Anonymous][quote]are you not entitled to 30 minutes to yourself as a nanny? i don't think some of you are being realistic here, exactly how much are you getting accomplished on the weekends during naptime? and who gets 3.5 hours of naptime, my kids have never once napped over 3 hours![/quote] 1) of course. I have yet to see an MB that does not say a nanny should be able to relax for an about an hr (on a normal FT shift) and it is only in the extra time beyond that that MBs want her to make herself useful. seems totally reasonable. We nanny share though so often the kids do not nap at exactly the same times, so i have low expectations of what nanny should accomplish since she often has only a bit of overlaping nap time. 2) during weekends I try to relax some since that is the only time I am not either working or "mom"ing. However, I am aware of how long it takes to unload the dishwasher uninterupted. it is not long. 3) It is not crazy for 6 to 18 month babies to nap 1.5 hrs in the AM and another 2 in the PM. 3.5 hrs for that age group is pretty normal. That assumes of course no other kids.[/quote]
