[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh yeah, OP, please definitely ask of outings will be allowed! That’s something I wish I had done.

I am a part-time WAHM with a full time nanny. She's been here almost 4 years, so I know she likes the job. She also likes having co-workers to talk to (me, and our part-time housekeeper). Other nannies hate having their schedules messed with or their boss likely to pop her head in at any minute. You have to figure out if this is the job for you. There's no hard and fast rule that working with a parent around is great or terrible.[/quote]

I am the pp you quoted =]

Of course there’s no “hard and fast rule,” that’s why I said things like “in my opinion...” and “in my case...” so OP knows this is not universal. I totally agree with you.

Also, I don’t want to alarm you, but there are many people who stay with their jobs for many years (for one reason or another) and are unhappy. I am actually one of them. I’ve been with my nanny family for over three years and I’ve really grown to dislike the position. I’m perfectly cheery and normal during the workday, though, and nobody has any idea. [/quote]

Well, given that she's asked if we'd consider taking her with us when we move this summer, I think I'll believe her. She also recently earned her Masters in Psychology, so she has other options for decent pay.][/quote]

That’s great for you guys! I’m a little jealous =p

Hopefully this family works out for you, too, Op! Just ask questions and try your best to see how well you’d suit the position. I’d make a list. [/quote]
