[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]And this one. That is five nannies that haven't worked out. She wasn't satisfied in the "trial days" and two au pairs didn't work out. That is a lot.

It has to be OP. [/quote]

I wouldn't count the two trial nannies at all; that's why she did trial days and did not hire them.  APs are different than nannies, so they don't count either.

However, 18 month-old twins have to be very demanding, and I suspect many nannies would not do well in this situation.  Add cleaning to the mix, and you're probably asking more than most nannies can deliver.  Maybe consider hiring a cleaning service until the twins are a little easier to take care of?[/quote]

How does hiring a cleaning service that comes every week or two help with the fact that she doesn't clean the high chair trays, food dropped on the floor, spills, etc., after every meal? I'm not asking her to scrub toilets or vacuum, I'm asking her to not feed my children off of dirty trays or leave pieces of fruit and chicken on the floor after every meal. Unless I'm hiring a live-in cleaner to follow her around all day, that won't help. We already clean constantly.[/quote]
