[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, a professional career nanny would absolutely be the person you’re envisioning. I’m not sure what you pay or how you found her, but you got a dud. I would start thinking hard about your interview process and what could have gone wrong. Consider using a reputable agency, many career nannies only use agencies because we don’t care to waste our time with mediocre families. Someone who pays less generally gets less, but sometimes that’s not the issue. Laundry is a given, unless you’re in a household with a full staff. Prioritizing your child and creating a schedule is absolutely part of nanny’s role. I can understand stopping by the nanny’s home – I’ve had two families whose children thoroughly enjoyed that. But their schedule was ALWAYS priority! You can do better, OP, assuming you pay well. [/quote] Laundry is not a given! Nor is prepping adult dinner, cleaning up ANYTHING for an adult.[/quote] Who said anything about tending to adults? I have never had a full time family that I have not done the children's laundry. With naps, quiet time, or school there is absolutely time for me to do laundry as well as meal prep and plan activities for the kids (and look at dcum while eating!). I don’t mind prepping family meals if children are in school and there is plenty of time. Laundry has never taken any time from the children and allows the parents to have more quality time as a family, which is a priority for me, and should be for all nannies! [/quote]
