[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with the PP that you should not have made that request.  [b]You have hired a nanny - not a housekeeper.  The fact that she does a few household chores for the children while they are in school does not change the fact that she is a nanny and not a housekeeper.[/b]  Her primary job is being a nanny.  Why would she come in when the children weren't going to be there at all?

Here is an analogy:  my account has always stamped and posted the return envelopes to the IRS for me.  I pay him to do my tax return.  What you did is the equivalent of asking my accountant to come into work just to stamp and post something for me.  [/quote]
The nanny is a part household manager and her duties formally include household management for a defined number of hours.  Household management does not require children at home. Why shouldn't the OP have made the request?

Your comparison doesn't work because your accountant does not do anything other than your taxes.  This employee's work includes 40% of household management duties. [/quote]
