[quote=Anonymous]Besides the you DON'T have a boss part? Is it not as lonely? Being a nanny for the last 7 years was extremely isolating for me and I live in Alexandria (where lots of Nannies were around). It was tricky because almost all of the nannies I met in Old Town, Alexandria didn't speak English well. They have their own little group. I was also much younger than the moms to begin with, so I spent the vast majority of my time alone. Some of the SAHM moms were rude too.. especially the older moms..... The children I cared for were all super sweet and I loved them, but after 7 years I found it exhausting and fairly dull. So while still nannying I got Montessori teacher training and started teaching preschool. 2 years later, I'm leaving my job to be a SAHM. I will go back to teaching once my little one is preschool age. So is being a nanny nothing like being a SAHM? Since I am a young mom I guess I can fit in with both nannies and moms. My baby will be mixed race so may look different than me. I'm thinking people think I am his nanny. Husband is SA. haha oh well this is not a big deal. [/quote]
