[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a nanny and I hate this part of my job in knowing that after a year I will be forgotten by the children that I have watched for over 40 hours a week, loved and spoiled. I will not see them grow up, go through their firsts or anything else.  :(  I feel like a third parent that is ripped away from her child when I leave the family. I feel as if the children are my own children and I am getting majorly depressed as the days fly by and my time with them slips away.  I wish they had nanny visiting rights but I am thinking of asking the parents if I can still visit with them and maybe take them on vacations with me. My heart hearts and I spent the weekend in bed crying when I realized I had only a year or so left. How do others nannies deal with this feeling? I know my time is almost up with them as they are going off to school and I hate to think of joining another family and opening up my heart seems an invitation for more pain and disappointment.

Oh dear. You sound crazy. You are not the most important figure in their lives. You want visiting rights and to take them on vacation with you? You are getting this upset and you still have a WHOLE YEAR or more left with them? You are acting like you have 3 weeks left! Or 3 days. Not that most people even act like that with 3 hours left. You really should find a new line of work. Or just have your own kids and stay at home with them. They WILL be yours to love forever and have visiting rights and be able to take on vacation with you. *facepalm*[/quote]
