[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nannies do whatever is in the job description that they accept. There is no nannies only stare at the children rule. If you don't want to do other tasks don't take a job that include other tasks, It isn't the employers fault that you can't find a different job. They were honest in their expectations for what they are willing to pay for and if you accept your responsibility is to your job. [/quote]

I'm 13:42. Are you responding to me? Because I'm pretty  sure that's what I said. If you knew what the job was and accepted that's on you. I was saying that generally the majority of those tasks fall outside the scope of nannying, so it isn't ludicrous that a nanny, who does childcare, wouldn't want the job. There's very little child care involved in this job, and a lot of housekeeper/butler type tasks. [/quote]

Are you the poster who said in a prior thread that she draws her narrow scope of work from the old Fran Drescher sitcom called The Nanny, wherein the nanny just watched the children and the butler did everything else?  Reality check:  The vast majority of nannies work for middle- to upper-middle class professional families.  These families do not generally employ butlers and many of them look to the nanny to play more of a substitute SAHM role, which includes house management in addition to child care.  That doesn't mean they aren't hiring nannies.  It means that the definition of what it means to be a typical nanny has changed over time since the days when nannies were employed primarily by the very wealthy.  [/quote]
