[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who are all these people sleeping during the day? If I'm feeling so poorly that I  have to sleep during the day then I need to be home in bed and not working. Your nanny is odd and way out of line. [/quote]

Their people that work full time and should be allowed a break like any other job, except they can't leave.  How they use the break or little downtime is their business.  You have to keep in mind that most nannies that are employed by people that work full time will have to work 10-13 hours a day.  On my last job with an infant I only worked 9 hrs per day so I didn't really feel tired at all.  But if I just needed to I only did it in his room while he was sleep and I was in the rocking chair and no longer than 15 minutes because I'd get groggy.  However now I work 7:30-6:30 and have a half hour commute each way. I have older kids, my 3 yr old naps 2 hours, his 6 yr old sister doesn't nap anymore but mb tells me to make her stay in her room and entertain herself with quiet activities.  Most of the resting time I'm cleaning up art and lunch messes, preparing my lunch, and then eating.  By the time  finished I may have 15-20 minutes I can just chill out.  Then I bring her out to help with things and practice writing and math etc while I complete other chores.[/quote]

Yep, life with a charge over 3.5 or 4 years old means no more paid naps in the afternoons![/quote]

I don't know where you got that from my post because I certainly could if I wanted to. And if you're being snarky with your little "paid naps" remark think about other jobs that have "paid breaks" or no "paid breaks" where you can actually leave to run an errand or have lunch with a friend.
