[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Actually, I could bill myself as Mary Poppins, if I wanted to. I don't mind 24/7, require healthy boundaries, do live-in positions, and don't want to do full housework but am very much in favor of teaching kids to clean up after themselves. The issue is that parents [b]think[/b] they want Mary Poppins. If you read the book and/or watch the movie, it's clear that Mary Poppins is not a doormat, takes direction only when it's in the best interest of her charges, will speak her mind when something isn't in the best interests of her charges and uses any reasonable method at her disposal to teach both kids and parents without belittling or demeaning either. Most parents don't really want Mary Poppins, they want someone without boundaries and/or someone who needs constant direction from them. For the few parents who really do want a Mary Poppins, they aren't willing or can't afford to pay what that type of position would require.[/quote] are you currently looking for a position? I would like a mary poppins![/quote]
