[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Okay so this is my first time on a forum so I don't even know how I'll know if I get a reply but I will try. What is a typical day/week like for you nannies? List what you do on each day's. How is your week structured? How often do you do laundry and change bed sheets?[/quote] Perhaps you should start a new conversation, that way people don't assume that it's a continuation of an old (1.5+ year old) thread. To answer your question, I agree with the immediate PP. A nanny can live-in or live-out. The nanny might be male or female, with 1 charge or 8. Ages of the charges can be newborn to 17. Sometimes there are special needs, most times there aren't. Sometimes the nanny does child-related household tasks like laundry, sometimes not. Sometimes the nanny works 40 hours exactly, but most full-time nannies work 45+ hours per week. Part-time nannies might have short shifts, split shifts or fewer days per week. Sometimes there are after school activities, sometimes there are toddler/preschool adult and child activities, sometimes there's transportation and volunteering at a charge's preschool. Sometimes the nanny is wearing more than one hat, so she's also the housekeeper, house manager, family assistant, family chef, personal assistant for the employer and/or filling some other position. Very rarely, a nanny may work 24 hours shifts 3-7 days per week. There are no two positions which are alike. That's why each nanny has a range of pay, based on her qualifications, the minimum that she will accept, the duties she is willing to perform and the willingness of the parent to let the nanny and child figure out the most efficient way to do things.[/quote]
