I seriously doubt there really is this underwear issue. It could be easily solved by just asking your employer to hold back the underwear. This would solve the so-called "problem" but the real problem is that you don't want to do work. OP is just another lazy nanny looking for fellow lazy nannies.


How do you get her wanting to watch TV all day from her not wanting to wash the filthy undergarments of her-employers?
You're reaching, Nutjob.


I never hear about people asking the house cleaner to change a poopy diaper or to prepare bottles. Why would you expect a nanny to do domestic work? House cleaners clean houses. Nannies care for children.
Do you expect your daycare provider to come to your home to mop the floor or scrub the toilet?

You're just another entitled parent looking for servants on a nanny forum. Sorry.

It actually wasn't even messy. According to the OP, the underwear was just there. In the past, she's run across dirty underwear. Which makes this an even more rediculous complaint.

If you wanted to come on here and just vent to see who would agree that's one thing, if you are looking for advice (and getting pissed off when it's not the advice you want) that is another.

Either way, you took this job knowing full well what was expected of you, regardless of how "gross" you deem certain things to be. Are your employers crossing some boundaries here? Probably. Are they magically going to change unless you speak up? Definitely not.

If you find you are unable or unwilling to perform all of your duties, the onus is on you to bring it up tactfully with your employers.

You sound defensive.

Aww, I don't think you actually know what that word means.

When was the last time your employers ask you to clean their dirty underware?


Never, because I would never agree to do adult laundry. OP did, however, and now wants everyone to feel sorry for her because it is a little messier than she was expecting. So, as many people have suggested, either open your mouth and say something to your bosses or suck it up and buy a pair of gloves. It's pretty simple stuff.

I would embarrass the fuck out of them by requesting they provide me with disposable gloves and asking that they place their underwear in those mesh lingerie bags. If they don't understand, I'd explain that for your own health you need some safety Precautions, you don't want to get passed some disgusting std or illness because you're washing their laundry.

I have a cleaning service for my house and I used to send my laundry to be washed when I lived in the city. If I had anything gross, I'd wash it myself and that includes sheets, underwear, sex toys etc.

I would feel the same way OP.
I would never expect another human being to wash my disgusting underwear.
To the women who are insulted that this nanny doesn't want to wash blood and jizz out of your undergarments, would you feel comfortable touching your nanny or house cleaner's period panties or their husband's crusty semen stained underwear?
Paid or not, it's gross.
You are some nasty bitches.

To the woman who said OP must be examining her boss' underwear a little too closely...blood and semen are pretty damn hard to miss. I can guarantee if you had to wash a relative stranger's undergarments, you would notice it too.

Either tell them that you are not comfortable doing their laundry and longer and offer another chore to take its place, or suck it up.



I take offense to that. I do not think I am above anyone. Get the hell off your high horse. Nothing but rude instigating morons on this site. Pathetic excuse. Don't respond if you don't have anything nice to say. I did not say I was above anyone.


Well you're being really dumb. "I agreed to do my employer's laundry and now I'm upset that I'm finding normal bodily fluids on it." I'd be grossed out too, which is why I don't do adult laundry. What do you want your employers to do - separate out all their "gross" dirty clothes and only have you wash the "nice" dirty clothes? Like I said, you signed up for it so if you're unhappy, fix it or suck it up. Don't come on here and complain about something totally normal. I assume that when you agreed to do their laundry, your bosses took this to mean you were okay with dealing with the grossness that comes with it. They'd probably be mortified and upset if they found out you were on here airing their dirty laundry, so to speak.


If they'd be mortified by someone talking about their laundry, the simplest way to fix it would be to do it yourself. And for those who say its their right to hire someone to do whatever they want, you're right, but you could also hire someone to wipe your butt. Could you respect someone who does that? Its just pure sloth, and not a respectable quality at all.

This.
If there is a load of adult laundry in the washer or dryer when I am doing kids' laundry I will either switch it from machine to machine or fold it. I pull the underwear out and leave it unfolded. It's pretty simple stuff. Either grow up and deal with it or let the parents know you are unable to.

It's a vent and it's allowed.
