I support in a way of giving work for them for them to earn money to provide for their own family. However, I learned in the news that some of them are not good in taking care of kids. There are those who are really passionate and knows what they are doing, but there are black sheep from the group that hurt the baby they are taking care of and to make it worst, steal money of their employer. There are those who just want a job because they can steal money and that is the sole purpose. It is hard to trust people from the outside that is why my sister did not get a nanny for her son and let my mother take care of him because it is different when your own blood is taking care of you. The patience is another problem. We cannot measure the patience of different people that is why I don't have a house helper or nanny.

If the nanny is a closed friend or relative it is a good help for them if you hire them as one of your trusties to your child. :)

Personally, I don't see very much wrong in hiring a nanny or house help so long as the situation requires it. Am talking about situations where both parents are mostly absent, working regular 9 - 5 jobs.

A nanny can be very helpful in the said situation above. Not just for taking care of the children, but also running the house operations in the absence of the parents. But in some situations, this decision might turn out bad at the long run.

I like to keep in mind that employing nannies can be of some disadvantage to the parents. A parent needs to be involved in the daily lives of their kids. Therefore, putting a nanny in place of them will mean that both parents would have little or no personal relationship with their kids. How then do they know exactly what their children are going through in certain situations? Parents should always make out time for their kids no matter their working conditions. The best time to make memories are when they are young. And remember, good memories are not just made during holidays or vacations, they can be made during daily living in the house too. If a parent constantly misses that, with time, children grow up and begin to take on their own responsibilities. When do you now make up for the lost times?

Hence, having a nanny can help a great deal, but parents shouldn't completely rely on nannies for taking care of the kids. They should try as much as possible to make out time and spend with their kids in order to make good memories and have a steady relationship between them.

Yes I only support it when the couple is busy with work most  probably but if they're just idling then its not a good idea. There are these kind of women who have made it a habit of just sitting all day watching and don't want to do anything related to the house chores. What they don't understand is that those house chores usually help their bodies in one way or another by keeping fit.
I personally think its good because it helps in creating job opportunities to other people but then some nannies end up misbehaving to the extent of destroying other people's marriages by snatching their husbands. What people do nowadays especially women is that they employ the elderly women who cannot easily snatch away other people's men. I think this is the best way out.

Don't hire a stranger or someone who you don't feel to be caring because if they cannot handle your children? The kids may be at risk in her hands.

I can support hiring a nanny only when the situation requires it. For instance, if parents have jobs where they need extra hands to help out with taking care of their children. They can't do it alone.

By doing such, I think it is better to hire professionals. Those with resumes or under a certified body. There would be a sort of guarantee and responsibility than when you hire just anyone. There's been alarming cases of child abuse by nannies whom parents have left their children under their care.

However, there are some people who hire nannies even when the situation does not require it. They'll have two to three nannies even when they can manage pretty well on their own. That I'm highly not in support of. You can only advice people but you can't tell them what to do.

There are numerous benefits that families can get when they hire these kind of people to assist in the running of the home chores. To me, I don't see anything wrong with having a helper at hone especially when your kids are not that strong and old enough to assist with the activities of the day.
I could recall that there was period in our life when I was unable to fetch water from the tap, I can't wash plates and even doing some other activities at our home was difficult. So, as the first child in the house, my mom decided to hire a nanny to help out with those chores as well as keeping my younger brother company while she was away.

It was a good experience as she ensured that everything that is meant to be done in our homes happened the way my mom wanted it. So, I believe that there is nothing wrong as long as those nannies are good people with no bad intentions.

Hiring a house nanny or house helps these days is something very common in the urban society and it all as a result of every single member of the family being into the working class environment, which makes it practically impossible for the parents to have ample time to take care of their children properly.


When the husband leaves for work very early in the morning and comes back at least around 8:00 pm in the night, while the wife does exactly the same thing by also leaving for work probably at the same time with the husband and returns around 7:00 pm, there is no way of getting to avoid not hiring a house nanny or house helps who would practically be the one who runs and manages the home for the family and take care of their children as well. Personally, I'm vehemently against hiring nannies because they might be abusive to my kids.

Yes i am in total agreement of hiring house helps. They are life savers for sure, especially if you have a family. Life sometimes can be unbearable when you have a husband and children to take care of. I cannot imagine a career oriented woman taking care of a household on her own. A house entails so much, from the chores to the kids the husband needs her attention at all times and this makes the burden too heavy to carry. This is when the house helps come in handy. While they handle the house chores, the wife can help around with the kids. Sometimes when the parents are not around, they will normally take up the position of the guardian and take care of the home, now if we don't have this people around us, how can we run our homes without things not being done in order. They are there to bring order and ease the burden in the home.

At present most of the family members remain busy in their bread earning activities. In this situation kids and elderly persons have to suffer from loneliness. Besides they need proper care that can't be given by the earning members. Due to this reason importance of house help can not be ignored.  Before hiring house help one needs to consider many things. Honest, sincere and caring nanny should always be preferred before hiring.

Hiring nannies and hoisehelps depends on how the persons involved want that is the home owners. Generally, consider factors such as:

Income

Number of children 

They help in the house and need to be treated equally as family members.

I have two answers for this. First is not to hire a nanny because a parent's care is the most important care a child should have and they should still have time to take care of their siblings after work. But if both parents are busy working, don't just hire somebody else, choose wisely upon the nanny you will hire to assure your child's safety

Only if they are a trusted person or have very good references, and also if you can afford it, many people do it because the work takes up a lot of time

I am not in support of hiring househelp or nannies, there should be this connection between the child and mother, there should be a bond, and please don't let your job come in between.

Ultimately, it is up to the family's personal preference and situation. Those who support hiring a nanny or house help do so because it offers parents extra help with childcare and household tasks, allowing them to have a better work-life balance. It can also provide children with additional support and guidance when the parents are not available. 

On the other hand, those who are against hiring a nanny or house help may be concerned about the cost or the trustworthiness of the individual they hire. It is important to take the necessary precautions when hiring someone to take care of a family's children and home. 

In conclusion, hiring a nanny or house help can be beneficial in some situations, but it is important to ensure that the individual is reliable and trustworthy.

Yeah why not because this makes house work much more easier and much better because it's like you having a specific job to complete and getting more hands to speed up the work.
