[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has any nanny done this and not burned out?  I have one 2.5 yr old charge and an infant.  There really is no way I can get even a 20 minute break during the day.  I [b]also manage the house (no housework beyond the kids’ laun[/b]dry).

I am very tired at the end of the day and do worry about burn out.  I collapse on weekends.  I love my job, my employers and my charge’s and am well compensated.  Will I get used to this new schedule? I have only been alone with the children since last week.  [/quote]

The 2.5 year old needs a rest period if he's already dropped his nap. Ideally you will get him on a  schedule to nap/rest while the infant is napping and that is when you can rest.  Also, what do you mean by you manage the house but only kid's laundry?[/quote]

OP here.  I handle all ordering and scheduling and payment for the housekeeper and personal chef.  The only housework I do is the children’s laundry - the housekeeper does everything else.

The older child does still nap but that is when the baby is awake and most alert.  So far, I have not had a moment during the day. [/quote]
