[quote=Anonymous]i think an hour long break would be reasonable at another job, but there may be a day where the child doesn't nap at all and a day where the child naps for several hours. i think having a list of tasks that should get done is more helpful-and having realistic expectations that some days not all of them will be accomplished. when i was nannying, there were days that the child took a long nap and i was able to get a lot done AND take a decent break. there were days when the child didn't nap or rest at all, or when we spent a lot of time outdoors, had a lot going on, etc. and we just weren't sitting around the house enough to get much done. i actually enjoy cleaning, but if we've been outside playing for three hours and then i had to walk home from the park, feed them, coerce the child into napping, change them, read to them, etc. then i need to sit down and be a person for a few minutes (at least 20) before i start anything else.
