[quote=Anonymous]I'm a nanny.  I work for a family I love, but I don't really see myself working for them for much longer.  I started part time and was actually going to quit this summer, but the mom got pregnant again and they offered me a full-time position.  I figure I will stay until about fall of 2015, at which point the older 2 kids will both be in 3-morning per week school and the baby will be over age 1.  The mom is a SAHM, so I have just been helping give her breaks, but at that point she will only have one toddler.  Even if they wanted to pay me to be full-time at that point, I doubt. I would want to.  The family isn't really on the same page discipline-wise and, more importantly, I am not allowed to take the kids anywhere but the neighborhood park.  They are also not paying me all that well ($13 per hour as a live in, 40 hours per week), and I would really rather be working 50-60 hours as a live-out making at least $16 plus overtime  and gettin to take the kids to different parks, museums, libraries, etc.

But as I said, I love the family and am willing to stick it out for one more year to help with the new addition.  The mom talks about how she will still have me working years from now, and so far I have just smiled and said nothing, but it's starting to feel deceitful.  Should I have this conversation now, or not until. I am starting to look for a new job?[/quote]
