[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I did this for many years before my son started K. I wanted a job that would allow me to stay at home with him and as a single mother, that was a tall order. I worked as a night nanny for many different families. I would drop my son off at my mom's house to sleep and then would go to work. I usually worked from 10 or 11 until 6 or 7 in the morning. I basically did what a mother would do in the middle of the night when the baby wakes up. Feed him/her, change him/her, get the baby back to sleep. Lather, rinse, repeat. I earned enough to pay all of my bills and be a SAHM. I would sleep at night when the baby was asleep and then again in the afternoon when my DS took a nap. I charged around $25/hr and found jobs mostly through word of mouth. Most of the parents I worked for had high pressure jobs and needed their sleep at night. Some of the babies had colic but most didn't.[/quote] I'm impressed. You and your mom.[/quote] This is a good description. You can also ask if she can also do the baby's laundry.[/quote]
