[quote=Anonymous]OP please ignore whatever happens in this entire thread - I know half a dozen nannies who bring their own children with them and all of them said they had no trouble finding a position. Look for families with a child the same age as yours, be prepared to answer logistical questions (where would your child sleep, who will provide the double stroller, etc.) and be prepared to accept a slightly lower rate, but you CAN find a job like this and it CAN pay enough to cover your bills. This forum is a tiny sliver of the nanny market and isn't going to offer you any helpful advice or realistic approaches. My advice would be to go to parks, playgrounds, toddler gyms, gymboree, story hours, etc. and look for women who are with two kids around the same age. A surprising number will tell you, if you ask, that one is theirs and the other they nanny for. THOSE women will be able to give you the advice you're looking for without an insane debate about pros vs. cons. It only takes ONE family that clicks with you to find your perfect job, and you have a strong background for it, so please don't be disheartened by DCUM's response. Good luck and congratulations on your new bundle of joy![/quote]
