[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Im glad you're going to bump up her pay but I am glad you are not my MB. I love feeling as part of a family and honestly is a MB told me I was not welcome to make myself at home, it would not be a good fit for me.[/quote]

I agree. This would make me feel unwelcome and OP may find herself without a nanny. She sounds like a penny pinching. and If I were the nanny I would feel incredibly ackward.[/quote]

I'm a nanny that works for a family that has an open fridge policy and even gives me a prepaid visa card to go out to lunch with LO.  However, I disagree with you.  While it may sound harsh, OP has every right to ask the Nanny to leave most of the food be.  It would be hard to plan meals and food shopping not knowing what will and won't be eaten up.  She could come home from work planning on make pasta for dinner only to find that nanny had used up the last of it.  It's OP's home and food and she shouldn't have to be shamed for this.  If she really is bumping her nanny up [b]$4/hr [/b] then I wouldn't say she is "penny pinching" either.  I give OP credit to taking the criticism and insight and doing something on her end to help fix the problem.[/quote]
