[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the nanny. I was with my nanny family full time for 3 years before I got pregnant. When I had my daughter, I took 6 weeks off and came back with my daughter in tow for 2 more years til the kids went to school full time. I kept a pack n play, diapers, wipes, and some toys in their guest room during the week. On Fridays I would fold up the pnp and tuck everything under the guest bed. Once my daughter was a toddler I brought her food from home (and I always brought my own).

I would say the pros for them were flexibility on my end. I didn't have to pick my daughter up from daycare so I could stay late when needed. We redid the contract and agreed if nanny kids were sick I'd still care for them. If my daughter was sick, she was still welcome to come or my husband would take the day off or my MIL would watch my daughter.

FWIW I never took a single day off work during my entire pregnancy and time I brought my daughter. [b]My daughters needs always came last while at work. [/b]I always went above and beyond and was insanely loyal to them.[/quote]

I wonder what that does to a toddler's psyche - to know they're less important to their mother during the bulk of their waking hours than the children she is paid to take care of.[/quote]

Her psyche is just fine thanks for your concern. I meant it in a sense of if we were out and about, I nursed my daughter in the Tula. Her nap times were scheduled around nanny kids activities, etc. It was an absolute joy caring for my beloved nannykids while having the blessing of my daughter with me all day. It was a time in my life I will always treasure and to this day my daighter always asks to see "her girls". [/quote]
