[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hey, everyone! OP here so many years later. Wanted to offer an update. I have a degree in education and in Spanish and am fluent in Spanish.

I stuck it out for teaching for 7 years and am now leaving to be a nanny. I will still receive health insurance through my employer and even a housing stipend. I plan to ask for retirement pension next year since if the job is as good of a fit as I hope I'll continue there for a few years at least. I am going to be making 1.5x what I did as a teacher and that's without any overtime that I might make.

I am glad I went into teaching first and don't regret it. I am equally glad I'm leaving teaching and going back into nannying. I have no concerns I could get a teaching job again someday if I wanted. I'm excited!

Just wondered why you decided to leave teaching after 7 years.    Your nanny position sounds extraordinary.  It's not typical to have a housing stipend (if not live-in) or retirement benefits.   Wishing you well![/quote]

Have you seen the news about what teaching is like these days? I kept switching schools hoping it would improve. It didn't.[/quote]
