ask the parents to get one of these big ass golf umbrellas. Other than that yes, you too can walk in the rain. I walk + take metro + take bus + walk to the office every day no matter the weather. Why would nanny not be able to do the same?

You should be appropriately dressed for the weather. You may be uncomfortable, but that's part of life. If you don't like it, get better gear. Awesome winter boots and coat, rain boots and coat, whatever the weather is. Kids have all that stuff and nannies should.

my golly, the libraries, activities, offices, schools and stores should just shut when it rains, snows, is hot out, is cold out so everyone can stay home and do nothing.

so much easier that way.

Nobody melts in the rain. I wouldn't ask you to go take a walk in the rain but I would definitely ask you to continue going to classes or story times or what have you despite rain.


Yes, this. It's just rain for crying out loud.

+1.

OP, why did you take this job? You don't want to use public transportation b/c that comes with dealing with the weather. When they said there was no car, you should have moved on.

Why do I think that at the time, they offered money you needed and an easy, one-baby schedule. Ever heard "you can't have it all?"

Problem is it's never too hot for MB, DB, or good nannies, but 50% of the nannies on this board have problems with everything from sun to rain to cold etc. It's not that hard nannies!
