[quote=Anonymous]When she does things outside our contact without expecting anything back. When I really need her to stay a bit longer when I get crammed at work and she doesn't balk at the idea. (I don't ask this alot. In fact in the past two years I've only needed her to stay twenty minutes or so later about five times.) I also understand that she might have other important priorities. When she notices a few items running low, instead of just writing it on paper for me, she stops at the store quick and grabs the items so I don't have to worry about it later. When she spends the 3+ hours my infant is sleeping (and other child is at kindergarten) doing productive things instead of laying down watching TV. (of course I don't ask her to do things to fill up time. She will take an hour for herself to 'recharge' and spend the next hour or so doing anything and everything.) When she goes out of her way to sign my child up for an activity. Which is much harder now that I have a newborn but she still makes it happen. When she goes out of her way to cook a whole meal from scratch when she could just heat up something quickly. (Like past nannies have done. Which is fine but like I said, my current nanny stands out because she puts effort into each thing she does.) Basically to sum her up, she gives without expecting. She doesn't just do the bare minimum nor does she milk the clock. She doesn't leave a fork in the sink simply because it's not one of the kids silverware. She gets a very generous bonus and I never fail to give her raises because I can afford it and she deserves it. Every penny.[/quote]
