[quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry, OP, it hurts.  I know from experience that you will never again be as close to any child as your first charge.

I have been blessed in always working for amazing families and have stayed with all my charges (two different sets of twins) from birth thru first grade.  Their parents still want to be a part of their lives.  I am with another great family now - a little boy - and I am bonded with him but nothing close to my feelings for my first set of twin charges (whom I still see).

It is heartbreaking that your charge's parents are throwing him into daycare at such a tender age and so suddenly.  It is different when a child has always been in daycare and knows nothing else since infancy.  Your charge will struggle.  I am sure you will now prepare him as best you can.  Whatever you do - remember your are doing it for the child and not the parents.

With preschool teaching experience, OP, you should be with an agency.  You will get much higher income parents and better educated parents than with an online do-it-yourself service.  Your current employers hired a nanny without realizing that they couldn't afford one - and now their child will suffer.  He will adapt, of course, but at what cost and how many tears?  Get with a wealthier family next time, OP.  [/quote]
