Maids And Nannies Don't Do Their Jobs/Show Up

The nannies are not doing their job. It said you Dont forget you hired a nanny blahblahblah . I left my child with the nanny she was on the brink of death when i got back i now want to murder this person in game. For taking my money and not doing anything while i was gone trying to do the weekly stuff.  need to look at the nanny stuff. 

This is on the base game on mods on the PC through EA App. just think about tweaking the code for people who get sent as nannies cause ive never had a problem on nannies in the other Sim games. I use to love them cause i had to go to work and they took great care of my child and the house.

    Playing with infants/toddlers after a long time. Their needs decay rapidly when my Sim travels to another lot and are not met by the adults staying at home. When hiring a nanny and traveling to another lot, the infant's needs are ignored. And when returning home, the nanny reappears as if she had just arrived.

    I hired a maid, and they will leave before cleaning all areas. They seem to only pick up trash/diapers and dispose of it, but it’s not all the time. The maids often skip a lot of the cleaning tasks such as cleaning the toilet and shower, and washing dirty dishes.

    I don't usually come to Forums.  I'm here because EA asked for feedback for EA's 8 weeks of game repair.  I left this comment on another thread then was directed to leave it here?    

    Nannies are messed up.  

    1. I would pay more for a nanny with high experience level / work ethic so I come home to a clean happy baby.
    2. When I dismiss the nanny, they should leave and not return until I call again.  Lately I will dismiss the nanny, pay and then nanny will leave and return the next morning!  I dismiss a second time as quick as possible and they charge a second fee for the few moments they returned. 
    3.  Since I'm paying for the nanny service, I want to be able to tell the Nanny "Go feed, XYZ"  "Change diaper for XYZ" 
    4. I want the nanny to take care of the child even if my sim parent is still on the lot.  Maybe the parent needs to sleep, complete a work task or have some fun with a hobby / invite a friend over.  
    5. I don't want the nanny to watch TV and ignore the baby crying.   
  • I have 100% experienced and been frustrated by maids, gardeners, etc taking my from the household acct but not doing the jobs (also pizza never comes). But I saw the Butler will check in every 30 minutes now.... sim minutes? because that's every 30 seconds in real time....?!

    Nannies and Butlers will perform their duties more often and regularly. They will check if they need to perform duties every 30 minutes instead of every 4 hours.
