[quote=Anonymous]I think you've covered things well, OP. Every family and job is different. Our kids are in school full time so we advertised for a nanny/housekeeper, but we do have a cleaning lady come every Monday morning so the house is clean at the beginning of the nanny's work week and she does not have to clean bathrooms or do any deep cleaning. She is only responsible for the floors (stick vacuum and mop) in the main fairly compact living area of the house and if she and the kids do crafts in the basement she might do the floor there too. She keeps the kitchen clean and helps with some simple food prep. She folds family laundry but only puts away the kids stuff, and changes the kids' bed linens. She does most of this before picking the kids up from school, so that after school time is focussed on the kids. We leave her a list of things to do every day and we are pretty tidy and organised, which helps her work efficiently. She is happy with the arrangement - wwe made sure to be very clear what the job is so that we wouldn't get applicants who want strictly childcare related duties.[/quote]
