[quote=Anonymous]This is my first full-time nanny job and I'm working with first time parents. I have initiated addition tasks and responsibilities in my job which have now expanded to take up every moment of each work day and about thirty minutes of my off hours/unpaid day. All my additional tasks are child related and, as my charge has gotten older, were things I felt should be my responsibility. I have no down time at all in my ten hour day now. I eat lunch standing up while doing tasks. I'm paid in the middle range but ever if I were paid top-dollar my point is that I am getting burned out after only a year on the job. My question: is this just the nature of the job? Do any of you nannies get downtime during the day to just sit and relax? Thanks in advance. PS This is NOT an employer bash - I took on these tasks on my own. [/quote]
