Stress sanitation as something that can't be played around with and if she doesn't want to take her job with you serious, then this is not the place for her. This is your lively hood and how you bring income into your home and family it has to be done right.
Educate her all around on germs and sanitation and what is expected of you as a provider and why you need things done a certain way.
This would call for a sit down serious talk and not a quick to terminate (unless you have been over all of this and she has known)
yes gross
yes should know better
but again everyone does not do things the same
Um no one in their right mind would wipe a babys nose with a sock and throw it on my sons bed so no thats no excuse to say no one does things all the same way. That calls for a termination asap. I am appaled at the statement no one does things the same. No one should ever do that. ewwwwww. I can see the other things I complained about but the nose thing is just to gross.
