[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a nanny to first time parents and they are amazing! Never micro manage, have never asked me to do anything that's not stated in my contract. Because they are so good to me I do fold their laundry if it's in their dryer, always unload the dishwasher and keep the house spotless. I do these things Bc they would never expect me to and are so grateful when I do! [/quote]

The most successful nanny/parent relationships are like this!
I would be considered a "entitled nanny" by the MBs on this post.
I have worked for parents who spring the "fold my laundry" and "bake this cake for me to take to a party" crap on me.
I only ever did what was required of me in my contract.  I never went above and beyond...because they just expect it.
In my experience, these are the families who never thank you for anything.
Parents who don't expect any work unrelated to their child are the ones I want to go above and beyond for.
They are grateful to you just for doing your job and for being a good caregiver.
I will go to the ends of the earth to make their lives easier...because they treat me with respect and don't try to suck every last minute of labor out of me.[/quote]
