[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Other than the occasional doctor's appointment, playdate, or a class she wants us to take, I typically plan the day with the children, not the mother. The families I work for know I have a proven track record of being a professional nanny, so there isn't the need to micromanage my day with the kids. I also keep a log of what we do everyday, so the parents know I'm not just putting little John and Suzy in front of the tv all day. One of the big parts about accepting a job is the chemistry between you and the family. I took a couple of jobs where I took them for other reasons, and they did not last more than a year. But the jobs where I knew we were all on the same page would end up being jobs that lasted several years. I don't sleep on the job, I don't expect mb to provide my food, I don't complain because I have to take the kids to the pool, I don't bring my laundry to work to wash it, I do more around the house than just what the children use. I also interact with my charges at the playground and have plenty of activities planned for us, I teach them to do chores around the house and how to be respectful to people. Why? Because I am a professional nanny and know I am there to provide the family with awesome service and not the other way around. [/quote] Exactly. A well compensated nanny is more than happy to provide awesome service. Nannies, THIS is what an MB will pay top rates and bend over backwards for. You sound amazing.[/quote][/quote]
