[quote=Anonymous]Lack of breaks. The only break I get is when my charge sleeps. Otherwise I am always "on", as one other poster mentioned. Even when my charge is sleeping, I am cleaning up messes or taking care of house tasks, so my down-time can be small or nonexistent. I know it's not plausible, but it would be amazing to have a 15 minute break twice a day just to sit down and zone out/clear my head. However, I used to work at a daycare center that didn't offer any breaks and at the end of each day I was completely mentally drained - it was awful. Nannying is much better because, even though I don't have breaks, working with one child is much less draining than working with 20 children. [/quote]
