I have been bringing my child to work since she was 2 months old... Now I have her after school (I drop off and pick up too).

How do you use that time?
I don't really *have* to do anything, but I generally keep busy. Tidy this or that in the kitchen, have a meal, read, DCUM.
Of course eat and rest. But also take a nap on the sofa, read a book, watch Youtube videos, watch movies on my laptop, mostly do things online (order stuff, read blogs).

I agree it's nice to have work this stage where you they sleep 4-5 hours of naptime. I've worked with great nappers. I do all child-related cleaning, make homemade baby food, load/unload the dishwasher, and tidy up the common areas. Once I'm down I will do school work, go on my phone, read a book, etc.

6) Getting to listen to music and dance around any time the mood strikes
Again, lots of nannies are well-compensated and very happy with their work.

Bumping one of my favorite threads.
Lots of us really do adore our work, and are very generously compensated. Living your dream is one of the greatest gifts you can have.

The biggest perk I have is working with a family who truly sees me as a family. They value my opinions. regularly thank me. compliment me on my performance and they fully trust me with their child. They never hesitate or question my motives as they know I would do anything I can to give their Lo the best care he can ever receive, and I will protect his life with mine if need be. Amongst all, they push me to succeed in my future career ( in school) and even help me study for tests and quizzes. They view me as a mature, professional adult and give me the trust and respect I deserve. That is the biggest perk I could ever want from them!
Yes, the no makeup, sweats and fun outings is wonderful but I view a lot of that as the smallest factor.
Love this!
I also work for an amazing family who supports my goal of one day being a teacher
They actually got me a laptop for Christmas since they knew mine was dying and I use it for all my school work.

find a similar family one day.
