Between work, kids, keeping active, and (occasional) socializing, who has time to be at home to accept a package? Or sit around at home waiting for the plumber to finally show up?
On this episode of On the House: The Household Management Science Insights Podcast, host Gabriella is joined by Louise Dunham, the CEO of Placement Solutions, Just Family Payroll Pty. Ltd., and Nurture Training College. Louisa had the great honor of being on the APNA awards committee and giving Barbara Kline of White House Nannies in Washington, DC, the 2019 Lifetime Achievement Award. In 2018, Louise won two prestigious awards from the Association of Premier Nanny Agencies, based in the United States. The first award was for leadership, presented to Louise for her 31 years of leading the industry and encouraging them to do better. The second was for Excellence as an Agency. This honor is particularly noted because it is the first time 2 awards have been won by one Agency in the same year, and it is the first time the award has been presented to a non-American Agency. In 2017, Louise published a book called The State Of The Nanny, a definitive look at this sector of the childcare industry. Louise was VP of the INA (International Nanny Association based in America). She chaired the Ethics Committee from 2012 until early 2017 and was the first non-American on the board. Gabriella starts this conversation by getting to know Louise’s favorite food and a recent book she has read before talking about the division of housework and how household managers can help in any home.
Gabriella and Louise also discuss three good things about dividing housework practices so that everyone can organize their homes well.
