Products Nannies Love When I started working as a nanny 25-years ago everyone used a paper nanny log, (which was a pad and paper), to track how much a baby or child left in my care ate each day, their mood, and the activities we did. Two-and-a-half decades later, I just download an app on […]

Products Nannies Love I must admit I love using Ziplocs to carry my nanny kid’s snacks and lunches and to store leftovers in the fridge. But, plastic is full of chemicals that may leach into food and they aren’t environmentally friendly. Wrapping food in aluminum foil is also convenient but can also contaminate food and […]
