Between jobs my mom got sick and expects me to take care of her. The cheapest parents pay per week what she pays me a month. That was just tending her needs and ironing which was full time but she's my mom. Now everything in the house is supposed to be my responsibility for same pay but there are 3 adults I have to take care of. I'm looking for a new LIVE IN nanny job just to get away from her.neva_eva_alwaysnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-65905913997993678982013-03-10T19:25:48.945-04:002013-03-10T19:25:48.945-04:00Parents will continue to ask as long as nannies sa...Parents will continue to ask as long as nannies say yes.

It is ridiculous. When I start...I completely agree. It is ridiculous. When I started out as a part time nanny five years ago, I was way too "nice". I was a push over. I said yes to everything and got walked all over. I've found that there are two kind of parent employers--those who stick to the boundaries, and those who will treat you as poorly as you let them. For the latter group, saying no and being assertive goes a long way. These kind of people will push and prod you as far as they can. Then they will inch up to that line with a smile on their face. So you must kindly let them know where the boundary is. Right now, you're letting your boss know that you are willing to do anything she asks. She doesn't care you're unhappy about it, she cares about the bottom line, and the bottom line is that you will do it.<br /><br />I have advice, but you're probably right--with this sort of person, it will likely create resentment.<br /><br />This sort of thing is why I would really like to get out of nannying. Children are wonderful. Their parents, not so much.Nanny Snoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-83377857661715031392013-03-10T13:21:55.420-04:002013-03-10T13:21:55.420-04:00This same story was posted here not even a month a...This same story was posted here not even a month ago.<br /><br />Why are you recycling recent material?<br /><br /><br />Is blog traffic that low?<br /><br />postsomethingnewpleasenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-43498191651835161022013-03-10T11:52:47.890-04:002013-03-10T11:52:47.890-04:00I read this when you posted it on Facebook.

Then stop asking your nanny to walk your dog!Leahnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-59086577884718685792013-03-10T04:39:47.015-04:002013-03-10T04:39:47.015-04:00This was absolutely hilarious but true. This is so...This was absolutely hilarious but true. This is something you have to address though missy! Although I'm new to the Nanny world I have experience in setting clear expectations and being concise. "I'm sorry MB I know that I can be a little hesitant when you ask me to go outside my role but I want to set clear boundaries so we can stay within the nanny contract that we signed together, so although I may not mind, I just want to stay on task with what is already expected so that I dont lack in any other areas, does that make sense, MB?" or in your words! Good luck <3<3<3NerdyNannyCnoreply@blogger.com
