To ask the nanny if she would like her own fridge / cuboard and seperate food

[mpje]

Hello,

We have had the same nanny for about two months. Its all going pretty well (third time lucky) and she is lovley and the our three children get on really well with her.

We eat a unprocessed / organic diet that is very healthy but I understand it is alien to most people who eat a "normal diet". I know that she has a normal diet and I don't judge her for that but she may be unconfortable with some of the food in our house and although we've said to just help herself to anything I dont think she realises that some of it is very expensive (she ate two packets of crackers that cost 8 pounds as a snack!).

Would it be offensive to get her her own fridge and cuboard space? She is not live in.

thanks

This is obviously a clear case of protesting too much, BoffinMum.

I bet the update was something along the lines of how op suggested her food segregation plan to the nanny, who was tearful with thanks and gratitude and confessed that she only wished she could be as wonderful and pure as op and her family but of course such a state would be unattainable for a peasant such as her... But merely being in their unprocessed and organic presence was making her a better person so she begged op to take the price of the crackers she had so wrongly eaten out of her next wage packet.

I think I can sense a pattern forming here ...
OP tells nanny she can 'help herself' to food in the house. Nanny does so; OP feels aggrieved and cheated.
OP posts on a public forum asking for thoughts/advice on above, betraying groundless assumptions about nanny's tastes and preferences. Posters respond; OP feels aggrieved and cheated.

boffy is def protesting too much !!!!

pantone363...no such thing as a clean diet.....no definately not.....whatever you eat all comes out the other end looking the same as everybody elses!

im happy to beg for the others on this thread

I think this has just popped up as Humble Brag of the Week on the John Robins/Elis James show on Radio X. Well done, OP!
