I get getting a nanny and she will be staying in the basement, decent size room, 10 x 13. Space is a concern as there will be a desk, chair, drawers and a small bar fridge. My dilemma is whether I should get her a twin (39 inches wide) or double (54 inches), both 75 inches in length. I have a king size in the master with my wife and it has been a while since I slept in either a twin or double size bed so I need some advice. I know the twin will do but the double will be more comfy and the concern is not the cost of the bed but rather overall space issue in the room. Any suggestion?

And no :eek: , I do not plan on sleeping with her! I hobby instead!
 
packing the nanny into a 10 x 13 room? Will she have run of the house when she's "off"?

If not, that's cruel IMO. If you can afford a nanny you should be able to afford to get her a decent sized apartment (or is she an illegal?)
 
get the double. She's an adult, deserves a big bed. If she's a live in nanny, there is a chance one of your kids will end up in bed with her through the night. I'm a mom, and my kids end up flopping on top of me during the night. At least she'd have the space to acommodate a sick or clingy child if she had to.

Get back to us in a couple of months and let us know how that's going.

Get the double. You may change your mind about fucking her and want the extra room. Nothing wrong with fringe benefits!
 
Go with 5X13 and use the rest of the room for storage.

Go with the twin bed.

Desk? No. Give her a stool to stand on... she can write on the small window sill.

Drawers? She can pack her clothes into bags attached to the ceiling.

Better yet, move the washing machine and dryer into her room and use that space for storage.

Don't forget to get her a hatchet to chop up kindling for the cooking fire in your backyard, or is she supposed to only eat cold food?
 
A 10x13 room, all to her self, is luxury living to the average FOB Filipina nanny.

If she’s 5ft nothing and 98lbs, a twin bed is plenty big enough – it’ll leave more room for other furniture and her stuff.

I’ve been in many houses with live-in nannies. One had two girls sleeping in an 8x10 room with bunk beds. They were quite happy there.

On their days off they go and stay with sisters or friends that have their own places.
 
Don't be a prick. Get the double. And buy a really good quality mattress and box spring. One that won't squeek.

Just because someone has been enduring 3rd world conditions does not mean that you have to make them "feel at home".
 
I'm guessinging...

...it never occurred to you that she might be a live in by design.
 
Let's hope....

....that like your kids, they will be "flopping" with their mother (or father) and leave the woman to her own life when she isn't "working".
 
I've had my share of Czech nanny-shagging. One of them was even engaged overseas. Go for the hot young Czech girl! Not the elderly Philippino.

Did it ever occur to you that a "decent sized apartment" could be contained within the 4 walls of the home?

DOH

a 10 x 13 is an average sized ROOM, without run of the house, where's she supposed to cook? Watch TV? Fold her laundry? Eat dinner?

If she is an illegal why not consider throwing out human rights while you are at it:eek:

My point exactly. Why stop on putting her in a "cell" in the basement? Why not take her ID, prevent her from using the phone, and make her shit in a bucket?

OH, and make sure to keep all pumpkins away, you don't want none of that fairy godmother shit happening! lol....
