So you never want time alone as a family? I’m not judging I just can’t understand this. We have a great nanny when we’re both at work but vacations are for the family
We do have alone time as a family. Each day there are a chunk of hours when the nanny is off the clock. So for example, when we went to Disney World a couple of months ago, and the nanny came with us, we'd leave the suite by 8 or 8:30, get into the park around 9 or 9:30, and generally the nanny would either do the entire morning with us or the entire afternoon with us. Then alternate covering lunch or dinner. So maybe the nanny would work from 1pm to 6pm, then 7pm to 11pm so DH and I could go out to dinner. Or the nanny might have a day that's 8:30am to 2pm.
