[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When you nanny in a city, walking is usually the only option. I've had many jobs where a music class or baby gym class was a 20-25 minute walk there and 20-25 minute walk back. If the weather is nice, nanny has a stroller or infant carrier- I see no problem with asking the nanny if she would walk a mile or so. On a beautiful day, [b]it would take 10-15 minutes to walk if nanny is in good shape physically[/b]. I would speak to the nanny before signing your child up for anything though because she should have the ability to give her input- in case this is something she has no interest in doing. I've never met a nanny who didn't enjoy taking their charges out in nice weather for strolls. Whether to the park, to an appointment, or something weekly like story time. [/quote] For a two mile walk that is an 8 minute mile!!! I can't run an 8 minute mile and I run marathons!!! An aerobic walk if sixteen minutes per mile. [/quote]
