[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sure, I would.

You can start with asking her to do some things pertaining to the home, but nothing too involved such as scrubbing toilets or mopping floors since many nannies may be put off doing any heavy-duty housecleaning.

Perhaps vacuuming, dusting, sweeping, dishes, taking out the trash/recycling, pet/plant care, drawer/closet organizing, laundry duties, ironing, bill paying.

Or you can ask her to run some household errands to make this week a little smoother for your family. I.e., grocery shopping, Costco shopping for supplies, pharmacy drop-off/pick-up, return library materials, take car to get washed and oil changed, dry cleaning, mail packages at the post office.

I am sure with two working parents and young children there is always something that needs to be done.

If your nanny is not comfortable doing any of the items I have listed, then she is welcome to take the week off, unpaid of course.[/quote]

If I were your nanny, I'd queitly do all of your ridiculous chores, then I'd replace your family ASAP. You chose to put your kids in camp for the week. You chose to wait until said week to deal with the nanny issue. You do not get to unilaterally change the nature of my job. If I wanted to sit around cleaning, running errands, getting oil changes, I'd have taken such a job, or better yet, I'd be doing it at my own damn house. You are out of your fucking mind to think what you have suggested will fly. [/quote]
