A nanny.

Another Nanny here who echoes this exact sentiment.

You sound very nice !

Of course you can eat the bars

Yes, you can eat them, just buy a few more.

Of course it’s okay! As long as nanny and your kids have enough for their lunch you can certainly eat your own food!

I want to make sure our nanny has things she likes in the house. She eats our food for lunch every day - usually whatever she is make the children. I make sure that I have other food she likes - snacks, treat food, drinks. I try to make sure there are multiple options for things she eats. I ask each week when I am ordering the groceries what she wants to add (she does not usually ask for anything but says what we have is good). She was doing a special diet in January. She did not ask at all for anything, but I noticed something she ate (Lara Bars) and so I made sure to have those in the house the next week.

Can I eat them too? I bought them and make sure there are enough in the house, but that made me think... is it rude to eat things that I got for her? Or is it ok to eat them too?
