[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I did that for two years and it nearly killed me. Talk to you employer about adding additional coverage or start looking for a new position. [/quote] Op here. In what way did it almost kill you?[/quote] I stopped doing everything but work and was sick all the time. I gained weight as my only relaxation was eating when I came home and then fell asleep. I just got overall exhausted. I worked seven days a week and only really had one morning off all week. And my commute was another hour added on to my daily work schedule. A human brain and body need down time. I used to joke that the few evenings I would see friends I was worried that I would pull back the back of their pants to check for poo-poos out of habit. Being a nanny is a physically and mentally taxing job. [/quote]
