[quote=Anonymous]I’ve never had a “break” in all the years I’ve been a nanny. Unlike infant nannies, my charges don’t nap. If I’m on, I’m working. I homeschool for some families, but even if I don’t, there’s plenty for me to do. I also eat meals with the kids, to model manners and appropriate conversation. Frankly, I don’t understand the need for a break, but again, I don’t work with infants or singles. Even when I’m with working with toddlers and preschoolers, I can direct them to a short activity that allows me to sit for a little while, so I’m engaged. A break is just not possible with multi-kid families in which at least two children don’t nap.[/quote]
