[quote=Anonymous]Caring for and teaching a child is a responsibility. I am constantly reading about better ways to do things with my charge and reminding myself to give her a spectrum of experiences while keeping her on track. I have to admit that I do feel overwhelmed at times. I am not new to the responsibilities of the working world. I am an older nanny with a degree in education and have worked in a high-stress field before retiring and becoming a nanny. I love my charge very much and want what is best for her. As an example: I don't work on Fridays (today) and I am home thinking about how I need to get her to drink more water, put her underwear on herself, and get in more reading time. Do other nannies feel this way? I am not anxious about any of it or nervous about it, but I don't just forget about me job when I am not working. [/quote]
