[quote=Anonymous]Op is this your first nanny job? I was sad and cried, on my last day, when my first charge moved away. That was 15 years ago and I didn't think I would ever get over it. I was also in my early 20's and think age and inexperience was the reason I felt that way. Since then I have cared for, loved, and bonded with many babies/toddlers since then. It gets easier with experience and you will learn how to let go in a healthy way. Don't think of it as you losing a charge, think of it as you did what was needed and made a big impact on their early development, and you will always have a part of their growing up, even if you lose contact with the family nobody can take away how you helped that child grow. If you get another nanny job remember they are not your children, your not family, but you are a huge role in their lives. You need to also should build a small wall between you so that you're not too attached which seems to be the case here. If you don't think you can separate that it's not your child then I don't think nannying is for you[/quote]
