[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Helping out with household chores doesn't mean the child is any less well cared for. Not being willing to unload a dishwasher is completely independent of the quality of child care you provide. In fact, I think it's better for a child not to ways be the focus of adult attention and to learn independent play. If my choice is a nanny who strictly limits her work vs a sitter who is generally helpful and hardworking, I'll hire the sitter any day. (And Id definitely pay her more!)[/quote]

So when you go to work, MB, do you wash your boss's car during your lunch hour?  Do you vacuum your office while thinking about your project or empty the waste-baskets when talking to a client?  Why not?!  I'd definitely hire someone who is generally helpful and hardworking!

And, no - you know very well you would not pay a sitter any more - who are we kidding here?!  [/quote]

Actually yes I have.  One of my bosses office was nasty.  A few of us got together when she went away and cleaned it.  We had to spend time in there and wanted to be comfortable.

What you are comparing makes no sense.  You are working in someone's home, there 40-60 hours per week.  You are there awake more than the boss, so to help with upkeep is reasonable.  I don't believe in cleaning the parents room or their bathroom but the one you use, the kitchen (assuming they do it too) and the main areas is reasonable.[/quote]
