[quote=Anonymous]OP, separate from the locking incident (which does sound like it was an honest mistake she's taking steps to ensure can't happen again)  I think you need to have a meeting w/ your nanny to reset things.

I think you would not be unreasonable to replace her, and you are very much within your rights to say "We really value you, and do not want to make a change.  However, you are not getting the job done consistently and I feel that our children are paying the price. (Cite specifics like laundry not being done etc...)  Ask her whether she would be able to accept this job today if it were offered to her - and if so, ask her to do the job fully.  If she is not able to do the job fully then you either make accommodations for her or make a change.

I get it - I'm in a similarly difficult place re a decision with my kids' nanny at the moment, and I'm struggling very much with what I think would be best for our family in the long run, versus what I know would be hard for her.

Good luck.[/quote]
