He older child will be home at least 2 extra day a month when the school has holidays, teacher work days etc. Use some of your down time to plan activities to do with the older child when they are home. Do some reading up on play time and activities to do with the infant. Like for example prep is tummy time play area, or toys for him to encourage him to crawl or walk to etc. Select a collection of books, make a themed scavenger hunt for a Wednesday afternoons etc. Do all of the prep work for meals, walk, activities during the naps so the child isn't waiting for you to do them while they are awake. If all that is done then take a break and enjoy your day. It won't be long when the baby is napping less and the older child is home on breaks.

NO to chores that don't involve kids. That is an absolute.

Work to rule. The first time you do something extra, it will then be expected for you to do it everyday. Too many women think their nannies are also their maids.

+1 if it’s not child related I’m not doing it. I’m a nanny not a maid or doormat.


There's a difference between being a doormat and pitching in here and there as a courtesy. If I'm washing the kids' dishes and there's an empty coffee cup sitting out, I'll wash that, too. Or take the kitchen trash/recycling out to the garage, sweep the kitchen if sweeping up the kids' cheerios, etc.


People start to expect “curtesy” - the coffee cup will stay in sink- it takes two seconds to wash they could’ve washed it opposed to leaving it, I don’t pull my own trash at home was taught women don’t handle garbage - again they see it’s running over they could empty their selves. Cheerios if made on my watch I’ll sweep up but not the whole kitchen


Maybe you could brush up on your English on your watch?
