[quote=Anonymous]I started a new nanny job about three weeks ago.
Prior to hiring, I was given some details about things that I would be doing with the two girls I would be caring for.
They are 3 and 5.
Both of their parents are working out of the house full time and they just needed someone to care for and play with the girls so that they can work in peace.
I was told that I could supervise them playing in the backyard and riding their bikes/scooters on the front sidewalks.
I agreed and accepted the position.

Well the 3yr old has been running in and out of the parent’s home offices and she is really fast.
I have had to run and get her numerous times during my shift.
However the parents will not lock their office doors for some odd reason.
Yesterday they told me that they wanted me to take them to the park daily.
The problem? The park is about a 1.25 mi away and walking back i would have to walk up a big hill.
Very steep.

And both girls, including the 5 yr old would be in a stroller!
I know the parents are likely doing this to keep the 3 yr old from running in and out of their workspace which I do understand.
But to add this on after I accepted this job feels like job creep.
To walk that far, up a very steep hill coming home while pushing a 3 and 5 yr old in a stroller seems a bit much.
And wasn’t discussed prior to hire.
