[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP here - well I'm probably her last employer so she likely doesn't care about her future employers - and if she wanted more infant or toddler experience, she would have needed to leave a long time ago - of course she could have --- either she likes my kids, likes the job or likes the paycheck or I assume she would leave.

I just post here because there is always just indignation about nanny's doing housework and my nanny does - with her permission, otherwise we really wouldn't need a full time nanny (and we don't need help on no-school, sick or other days- our kids are old enough to stay home alone).

This. We have the same nanny for &gt;6 years. At first she only did small things around the house, focused on the babies. We had conversations about how the position may change as the kids grew older. She was eager to pitch in, loved working with our family. I don’t set a schedule or have a sheet with tasks, she is just naturally super neat and organized. We lucked out, yes, but you need to screen for willingness to clean upon hiring and then keep it in the conversation.[/quote]
