[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a Nanny, I think if we work long days...say 8-10 hr days and the child takes naps, then we should be able to as well.

I currently care for a one yr old child and when he take a nap in the afternoon for say....1.5 hrs, I use that time to rest up on the sofa. Of course, while my eyes are closed and I do go into a light slumber, I have his baby monitor right next to me so if he makes a peep or whatever, I am right on it.
I would NEVER ever sleep when he is awake. That would be neglectful.

Since the day is SO long, I don't see what the problem with napping is. A tired and burned out nanny is never a good thing for a young child.

Plus, honestly...sleeping on someone else's sofa is not the same thing as comfortably sleeping on my own bed at home anyway.

If the parents had a problem with it, I would have a problem with them.[/quote]

Stop bumping old ass posts. Also, any normal professional can manage to stay awake during their shifts. Go see a doctor.[/quote]
If you don't like old ass posts, you may stop coming back. Control freaks aren't welcome here.[/quote]
