[quote=Anonymous][quote]OP here- Unfortunately I do need the money, my husband and I have been talking about maybe trying to find a position where I could bring her, but I really would hate to quit on someone. I've never left before a contract was over and I would hate to end things badly with any family. I love the child I care for sometimes when I snuggle DC, I am wondering if my child is getting similar affection. Each day the sadness grows so I think it is something worth exploring further, idk if I could stay home for 3-4 years though. I enjoy my job, probably more than most, if I could care for my child and make a decent income of course that is what I'd do. But I don't think I have seen decent income for SAHMs, or nannies bringing their kids.[/quote]

If you don't have any flexibility to reduce your income for a few years, you probably are just stuck. If you can reduce your income, you could try finding a job with fewer hours or keep looking for a position that allows you to bring your child. Its really rare for an employer to go for a nanny bringing her child so this shouldn't be your only plan. If you can afford to take some evening on-line classes or get some certifications it may be easier to find a higher paying job for fewer hours.

Housecleaning where you go to someone's house once a week or every week and deep clean for 4-5 hours pays more than just being a nanny. It is harder work but you might be able to match your salary for far fewer hours a week if you can line up several dependable jobs. [/quote]
