[quote=nannydebsays]OP, with a 9-month-old, yes, there is a significant amount of naptime involved in the day of a nanny working for you. But at some point, that nap time is going to get shorter, and one nap will disappear altogether in 9 months or less. So if you want to ask your nanny/housekeeper/cook to fill all but one hour of naptime with work, do be aware that the amount she'll be able to accomplish in the time she has now (2-3 hours a day after her 1 hour break?) is going to slowly diminish as your baby is awake more. That means you will have to start DROPPING duties from her list as you see the nap schedule changing, and you will need to emphasize to her that you want her attention focused on baby first, with cleaning and cooking a distant second.
