[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work 12-13 hour days as a nurse, on my feet constantly being incredibly physical (way more active than I ever was with twin toddler charges), with no scheduled break and often only enough time to shovel food into my mouth while standing.  I also have a 45 minute commute. Were I to nap on the job, I would be fired immediately.

Long, active days are no excuse to sleep on the job.

I would honestly be worried about my nanny's health and ability to preform their job if they constantly required a nap in the middle of their day. This is beyond unprofessional and flat out weird. [/quote]

Your schedule sucks. Yes, you are a martyr but everyone does not need to be one. I had a nanny who napped when the baby napped. My DH and I also napped when we took care of the baby  the weekends.  My mom who occasionally watched my baby also napped when the baby napped.   I would want the care giver to be well rested and alert when baby was awake.  I do not understand why the nap would be an issue if it was not compromising safety and care. [/quote]
