my MIL comes to my house 4 days a week to watch my 5 year old, she puts him on the bus at noon and has the whole after noon of quiet time with the tv .... she is 66 and gets paid $170 a week. I made plans for daycare and they decided this.. she likes to run the sweeper and dust, that is fine, she can do wash if she wants, sometimes she brings hers, that is fine, just don't go in my dresser, leave the sink drain where it belongs! in the sink, and don't touch my sewing machine and last one.... don't put my tomatoes in the fridge! that is all I ask.

Haveever considered that babysitting every day at her age may not have been in her plans?
(Not all grandparents live and breathe for the opportunity to take care of grandchildren on a regular basis.)
I do agree that the only person that should be messing with your stuff is you -
