[quote=Anonymous]I've posted a few times here and the Nanny forum  about retiring teachers (meaning 50-60 years old) taking on a nanny position for a few years after retiring.  My sister is one of them.  She has a Masters in Elem. Ed. and endorsements in Reading and in  SPED and is K-8 certified.

Word got around that my sister was getting restless 6 months after retiring (age 55) and the competitive offers started coming in.  She never advertised. She hadn't' even considered it until a few potential employers mentioned it.  She has been with one family for  5 years now (3 kids) who are currently, 7 5, 2.  When she mentioned she was thinking about going to back to her surfing/mountain biking retirement days they upped her from $35/hr to $38 and she agreed to one more year, then re-assess. Since she can't surf right now due to closed beaches,  she is happy to continue with the family.

And you had  better believe  no housekeeping duties! She works 7-3 and a more casual babysitter takes over then til parents get home. She is fed breakfast and lunch by the family. She is a great cook and loves to feed the kids-- she leaves the family a shopping list each week to order from Whole Foods , etc.  She gets 4 weeks paid vacay. Since she is tutoring the kids now the employers will do anything to keep her.

So, look for retiring teachers.  You can work something out. [/quote]
