[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just curious how many employers out there ask their nanny to do some minor household chores, independent of child-related responsibilities. I’m thinking of chores like unloading dishwasher, folding laundry, washing an occasional pot left over from dinner the night before. I ask because the more I talk to other families I get feedback that their nanny helps out a little around the house. Our current nanny does not. We pay her $20/hr for 1 child (2-something) who naps for a solid 2 hours everyday. [/quote] If she's a professional, maybe she doesn't want to become your cleaning lady. Employers typically take advantage of kind-hearted, helpful nannies. Most of us have learned this sad fact the hard way. If you want her to stay, it's important to maintain healthy boundaries. Do you have a contract outlining her responsibilities?[/quote]
