[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nanny here.  I love to cook and make all food for my charges from scratch (and we go grocery shopping weekly so that I can get anything I need to make their meals).  I use nutritional guidelines from the AAP to plan their meals.[/quote]
Sounds good to me.

I bet your employer is paying you more than OP is paying her person. [/quote]

OP here.  I suppose pay is certainly relevant to this discussion!  We pay $22/hr for one child.  Does that change anyone's answer?  I feel better after reading some of these replies- and this isn't something we clearly discussed or put in the contract, so I think I'm not going to push it too much.[/quote]
OP, for $22/hr for only one child, you should expect home-cooked, nutritionally solid meals. With the type of attitude to food and cooking you've described, I think you're overpaying unless your nanny is amazing in some other way that makes you overlook her ineptness in this thing called cooking and eating that probably has more to do with your child's health and future habits than anything else.
