[quote=Anonymous]Nanny here. I got a job offer for a PT job. On the Silver Line, the ride is about 1 hour each way and I would have to walk a mile or so from the metro to reach work. I have to work part-time as I am in grad school . The possibilities for part-time on the days I am available are already severely limited . It's tricky since I don't own a car and I live in Reston. I really can only find job in the city, which is far from where I live. I do live rent free so that's a huge plus. Time outside of work for family and friends will be a little less – to the train ride. I will be able to study on the train and it's only a few days/week. The family also seem like a good fit. I always say that in the beginning though and then sometimes things change! I'm so indecisive about this . I kind of want to accept the job, but then part of me wants to wait for something closer. I DON'T want to accept and switch once something closer comes my way. I don't think this would be fair to the family . I also don't want to give my references out and then have things not work out. This has already happened to me recently. I started working with 2 different families and both times the mom ended up letting me go because they needed full-time childcare. Both moms thought their bosses would let them go back part-time , but they had to work full-time. It had been very frustrating dealing me this. Thanks in advance for your help![/quote]
