[quote=Anonymous] I am a nanny who was in a very similar situation recently. I agreed to care for all three kids, my thinking then was that things were going so very well with the toddlers and it would be great to keep them together - they balanced each other off very well and learned from each other etc. Suffice to say - it was too much. The kids were great and I tried to give them all proper attention but at the end of each 9 hour day, I was so exhausted that sometimes I cried (alone in my car or in my bathroom). And then I gave notice - I did give the parents adequate notice based on our initial agreement and also made sure they knew that I wouldn't just leave if they needed a little more time but it was not my best decision and I still have some regrets about things. Having said all of that, I am sure there are some nannies who can handle this and be ok but if you have the resources to do differently, then please do so.[/quote]
