[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So what are acceptable duties for nannies in this area? Childcare-related meal prep and light housekeeping (e.g. making sure kids clothes and toys are laundered/folded/clean and tidy/out of the way)?[/quote] I am a nanny and I do pretty much anything and everything for the child. Always the child's laundry, cooking, grocery shopping, ordering of supplies (her shampoo, soap, diapers when she wore them, etc), cleaning and disinfecting toys (more important for crawlers but do wash toys for older charges), making sure her room, playroom and outdoor playroom are straightened and all toys put away/books back on the shelf as well as her bathroom after her bath. I also keep up with her too small clothing and get them into storage boxes. I don't clean really - it is too hard to mop and vacuum when my charge is awake and not possible when she is sleeping. I pack and unpack for my charge when we go on a trip. I keep track of her classes and the payments for those classes. I get birthday gifts for her friend's birthday parties. I am always looking for new books and toys as well as organizational stuff for storage but always run by the bigger purchases by my employers. I make sure she has art supplies. Of course I take her to classes and organize play-dates and playgroup. It is a lot, PP. [/quote]
