[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most parents don't seem to much care about their own kids, so the nanny is definitely a nobody![/quote]

Most people don't keep full-time nannies when kids go to school.  It has nothing to do with the kids or nanny but finances and need.  If you do more than just caring for the kids, it may be easy to justify a household manager but if you strictly care for kids and during your work hours are doing the day, its hard to justify.[/quote]
Last employer asked me to stay on for a full eight years for their one child. They didn't want to scramble for every sick day and school holiday. And no "household management" (housecleaning). Agree that most families can't afford that, but consistently and security was important to them.[/quote]

Household management is not house cleaning. We manage other household staff, including the housekeeper. [/quote]

Someone would have to be very wealthy to have that which is not a normal family.  [/quote]

Not unusual or abnormal at all in many communities where nannies work.  We have a chef who prepares our lunch for us (is being a housekeeper, two nannies and a newborn nurse) every week day.  On weekends the weekend nannies have to reheat their meals - poor things!  [/quote]

That is not normal. [/quote]

What is “normal”?  Wealthy couples originated the concept of the nanny/governess.  The concept of middle class couples hiring a nanny instead of one staying home or avoiding daycare is what is new.  [/quote]
