[quote=Anonymous]I’m a nanny who has been with the same family for 12 years. The kids are now 12 and 10. I’m paid full time while the kids go to school. I work 3-7pm, paid 40hrs. Im full days in summer and breaks and days off school. I’m on call for emergencies (like 1.5 years of lockdown) and recently had a convo with my boss about how long they want me to stay. I told them I really appreciated them paying me full time while I work less than 20hrs a week. The parents said I’ve earned this time after 12 years of loyalty and everything I did for them during the pandemic (no housekeepers, no chef, I did it all for the same rate) and they will never feel resentful paying me to do ‘nothing’ while the kids are at school. They said they want me to stay until the kids go to college because they will always need a nanny to drive the kids to activities and cook family dinner. My boss encourages me to work for other families while the kids are at school, so I can keep up my infant experience, but all families know my main job takes priority.

I know my experience isn’t the norm and I’m just so grateful. [/quote]
