[quote=Anonymous]Sure you can, OP. However, it's very important that you let your potential nanny know well in advance. Make it clear so the nanny doesn't become blind-sided at what she thought was just 'nannying'. Also, some employers (only a minority of them), will say ten hours of housekeeping a week but then slowly slide up to twenty. They'll also stop doing their own laundry and cleaning and make it the nanny's sole responsibility. Not saying this is you but just giving you a warning so your future nanny doesn't become passive-aggressive, frustrated and feeling she is being taken advantage of. I would definitely do what you plan to do. If you were going to do it for a couple of hours a month then I'd say just pay the darn nanny. But, if it's going to be a weekly thing then definitely put the nanny to use instead of constantly paying her for time not needed.[/quote]
