[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP I WAS IN YOUR SHOES!!  I have a p/t nanny and wanted to make sure she was happy while taking care of my infant, and I offered her to help herself to our food.  Well needless to say this has become a major problem.  She is eating all of our most expensive grocery items and even though she's p/t (16 hrs/week), you would think we have another grown adult living with us when looking at the grocery bill.  groceries are expensive, and I can barely afford my nanny nevermind feeding her all of our food..  she's also been eating my kid's snacks, so i'm running out in the middle of the week to replenish everything.  my DH wants us to find a new nanny because it's costing us so much more than we anticipated.

Anyway, if I were to do it over again, I would have offered specific snacks and drinks/water.. she's only p/t and last time I checked, people don't normally get paid lunch at their normal jobs.   HTH![/quote]
Is she maintaining her original weight or gaining weight on your dime?[/quote]

She's young, early 20's and walks a lot so I haven't noticed a weight gain.  My husband thinks she's hoarding our food to bring home so she can save money.. who really knows.  I've started putting food in our second fridge downstairs, hoping she doesn't find it LOL [/quote]
Are you paying her enough to buy her own food?? If you feel you are, what could she do doing with all her savings? Maybe you'd find a big pile of cash under her mattress, if you could look.[/quote]
