What isn't going to happen is that they outsource all the therapy and keep you on. They need someone who can (and is willing to) do both.
Op probably is not doing the therapy. They probably have an in-home therapist from infant and toddler come for an hour and then asks Op to do some supplementing. It is probably scheduled at an odd time for op, so between meals, naps, etc. there is not enough time or her to meet up with her friends, calling it a play date.
I'd hate to think this true of any good nanny, but this situation sounds like OP's post. Supplementing therapies is common, and not complicated. It is, however, time consuming, and limit the nanny's control over the daily schedule.

I would move on. I think the parents know what type of caregiver the child need, but don't want to PAY. You're job will only get worse and it will burn you out.
