[quote=Anonymous]A burned out nanny is never a good thing. For anyone. I don't get how families ask nannies to commit to years of service in this field. What other jobs, aside from the military mandate such commitments??! None. It's stupid for a family to ask a nanny to commit years to a family. No one knows what will happen in the coming years.

Nanny, I strongly advise you to give your notice as soon as possible. Offer to stay on until they find your replacement. I don't know how close you are to your family, but if you feel comfortable w/them, let them know it is not about them. Tell them that you just need to take another direction in your life and that you feel like going back to school is your calling now. Even if you committed another year to them, what is the worst that can happen now? They cannot take you to court and sue you and make you work for them another year. The worst thing is they can get angry at you, but if they do, then that is THEIR issue, not yours OP.

You live your life for you. ONLY you.

As a parent, I wouldn't want my children in the care of someone who was burned out being a nanny. What you are deciding is in the best interest of everyone involved, including the parents. They just might not see it initially.

I wish you all the luck in your future endeavors OP.

You rock it!![/quote]
