SHOULD babysitters be expected to watch your children AND clean your house?

After one couple went out for a date night, they came home to see that their babysitter allegedly trashed their house.

In a video posted on social media, mother and podcast host, Jessica Nicole, shared the look of their messy kitchen, saying ”Like, really?!”

Showing the chaos, Nicole claims that the babysitter left dishes of food, a dirty cutting board, and used napkins and utensils covering the countertops.

Her children were spotted sitting on the couch in the back of the video, and viewers thought they looked old enough to clean up the mess themselves.

“If they ate it, they need to clean it up…if she ate it, that’s different,” a user said.

“Those were YOUR KIDS. It’s your mess, not hers,” said another user.

Others argued about what was required of her job position, saying that a babysitter’s job is to watch the kids, not to clean the house.

“Did you hire them to clean? Childcare & housekeeping are different things,” one woman said.

Others asked: “Did you communicate that is a part of her job? And pay her accordingly?” and “Would you rather them ignore the children and clean? That’s called a housekeeper, not a babysitter.”

A mother said, “As a mom with *crazy wild* toddlers, I NEVER expect our babysitter to clean up after them. I do appreciate it when they clean up the mess.”

Agreeing with the video, a different babysitter said, “As an experienced babysitter it’s common courtesy to clean. Sometimes I’d even clean dishes/messes I didn’t make.”

Another mom said: “I taught my daughter to leave the house cleaner than when she got there. She makes bank babysitting!”

“Well done,” said Nicole.
