Some people feel that the best education is worth (almost) everything. Others place little valve on it. One can see the difference according to what (or how much) you are willing to sacrifice, in order to attain it.



Real learning starts at birth.
It's called curiosity.
You can either nurture it, or ignore it.
You choose.

A job is something you do simply to earn money; a career is a series of connected employment opportunities.

A job has minimal impact on your future work life, while a career provides experience and learning to fuel your future.

A job offers few networking opportunities, but a career is loaded with them.

When you work at a job, you should do the minimum without annoying the boss. When you’re in a career, you should go the extra mile, doing tasks beyond your minimum job description.

In my experience, nannying has all the elements of a career as defined here.

This is good. Some of these same elements will help you recognize a real professional, vs someone trying to find themselves.

There is no job description of a nanny that says to keep herself busy, unless it's yours.

A Nanny cares for children.

A housekeeper keeps house.

Notice the difference?








Child care does entail child laundry and child tidy-up, not your dirty panties. Let's be clear.

16:06 sorry but a nanny who does light housekeeping is pretty much the norm. They aren't separate roles at all. Employers will offer jobs that meet their needs. They aren't obligated to match your fantasy job.

Now, there are housekeeper only job where someone comes in once a week or every other week for a few hours and deeps cleans the entire house.
