[quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thank you all for your suggestions. I know I work crazy hours for not that great pay. I've been at this job for a year and a half. I love this family! It is the first NF that I have felt this way with in my 12 years working as a nanny.

It is completely my fault for taking this position at low pay (I was kinda tricked by the agency as well), but it is my problem that I can't ask for a raise. I have a fear of talking about money.

I do love my tiny apartment. I need some place that's mine, and private on my precious weekends. It's hard always being ON for 5 days a week. It is worth the crazy rent.

I am saving, at least $1000 a month. But it is adding up painfully slow. Plus I would like to start a retirement fund.

I know I should ask for more money. I KNOW they can afford to pay much more. And I KNOW they adore me. It's just my stupid money talk fears that are getting in the way.

My original was should I tell them I am taking a side job? I think I will. Just to be forthcoming, and perhaps it will have side-effect of them questioning my pay.[/quote]
