Who would want a job like that? Are you talking about a short term position? No one could or should work/be on call for work constantly. It’s unhealthy,
As I said, there are many of us who do it. This is my third 24/7 position, and I've had one 24/5 with extra hours over the weekend. Typically, we're either empty nesters or never have children, we're career nannies frequently with education and/or specialties, and we make enough to make it worth our time. Every 24/5 or 24/7 nanny I know takes off at least a month between positions, and several have earned enough to not only buy a home for themselves, they've also bought investment property.
No, it's not for everyone. But for some of us? Why not?
