[quote=Anonymous]I'm an infant only nanny (birth-2yo) and I started out nannying for preschool/school age kids while volunteering in our church nursery and then as any additional children were born into my current nanny families I started gaining real life experience being with a baby 40-50hrs a week. I also babysat a ton to get more exposure, took classes, read every hot baby book on the market and generally built up a solid expertise which then seamlessly merged into doing what I love, which is care for the tiniest little people. I don't automatically leave at 2yo, I leave when the youngest is 2, although I will leave if there is no sibling either just born or mb is pregnant. Anyway, I'm in my 3rd year as a newborn nanny, and previously I had newborn-2yo twins and now my current charge who is 1, I've had since 8weeks. There is a niche out there for dedicated newborn nannies and the pay is above average (I make 52 a year, not in a major nanny market) Good luck, I hope you manage to break into this area of care. Babies are seriously the best people on earth[/quote]
