I have to disagree with the women who are saying it isn't the nannies job to make sure they brush their teeth, eat proper, etc. It sure as hell is, otherwise you aren't nannies you are babysitters. Babysitters don't interfere and only "help" out the mom and maybe play with the kids when mom and dad aren't around. Nannies are more than babysitters. I would expect my nanny to make sure my children brushed their teeth even if I didn't tell her to, as it is common sense. If I was a nanny then when I was watching them, there wouldn't be junk food unless mom directly interferred and said it was O.K. Since Britney is never around I'm sure the nanny would have lots of time to make sure they ate correctly etc. However what she hires are not nannies, they have no training and they are babysitters.
