[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi OP, fellow Nanny here:

A.)How do you find your Nanny job(s?)
Do you go through an agency or do you use childcare websites such as Care.com or Sittercity.com??
Have you ever found a nice family using Craigslist?

I have done agency, word-of-mouth and online.  I don’t use Care.com on principle.  I haven’t personally found a job on craigslist but I would post there if I were looking

B.)Are you responsible for doing your charge’s laundry?
Do you have any household duties to perform or are you strictly childcare.
I am responsible for basically every aspect of the children, so I do their shopping, make all their food from scratch, manage all their laundry, all their appointments, school paperwork, etc.  I also volunteer often at their school.

C.)Working such long days - do you ever nap when the children do?
Because no one could blame you if you did. [/quote]

The children don’t nap anymore but we all lay down and listen to an audiobook and sometimes I doze off.  The parents don’t mind.  I am literally laying with my arms around the kids so it’s not as if they could get up and wander off without me noticing.[/quote]
