If you have small children, would you take your helper when you go on holiday?

I would prefer not to, if it's just me and my husband and kids. I'd prefer for my holiday to be a cosy and private family affair. I've seen some families bring their nannies on holidays and they are often left on the sidelines alone while the family has fun. I know it's part and parcel of the job but personally, I wouldn't do it :/ However, if it was a bigger holiday -- with other family members, then yes, I wouldn't mind bringing the nanny, at least there are more people and less awkwardness.
