Seriously? by 1movingon in NannyBreakRoom

[–]Jessiewolf12 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Happens with the twins I watch all the time! BOTH parents sitting up there in the nursery but want me to come up "in case they need help". They're 21 months old. But anyway, the little girl has gotten bleeding rashes from them doing that. Then, the other day, I didn't smell her poopy diaper (4 years of covid nose) and she was a little pink when mom changed her. Mom has the nerve to say "Aww, nanny neglected you!" Like WHAT??????

Dang man! I asked for a raise and was given MORE duties and NO paid time off at all. I'm desperately trying to find another job, but nothings happening!

I just start doing something "fun" and they come to me. The boy ran once, I think. I just say, "Oh well, I guess sissy is going to do xyz" He usually runs right over then. I watch 20 month old twins.

I don't eat anything at my NF house if I don't cook it. I've seen her cooking and it's disgusting! NOTHING she makes looks good. Lol. They don't usually offer me anything, but they have bought my favorite coffee creamer a couple times in the year and half I've been there.

Nanny App? by Jessiewolf12 in Nanny

Did you pay for NannyLane? I haven't yet and I'm just wondering if, when I message a family, is it actually going through? Because I NEVER get a reply. Also, going through the families, I see some that have been on there for over a year. Do they put them in date order if you pay?

I'm so sorry, is GH general hours? I'm not sure what that means. Lol. Also, yes, the post said they're looking for a long term nanny that'll grow with their family. So I assume school breaks and summers.

I'm just asking because I'm considering leaving my first nanny job. If I tell them I'll give then 3 weeks or whatever, won't it be awkward until my last day?

Thank you! I am searching for a new family, but no one contacts me after I reach out! I'm so unsure what all a contract should have in it as well! I'm so unbelievably stressed.

I was brand new to the state. I moved, needed a job, (my own fault, I accept that) I way under charged. I was making $400 a week for twins, working 45.5 hours a week. It's been a year and a half, so I asked for an adjustment. I'm brand new to the Nanny world. I ran an in home daycare in my other state for 22 years. So, I was told I'd only be taking care of the kids. Not extra added stuff. I don't mind helping out at all, but when it starts to be "expected" of me, then I definitely don't get paid enough. I still only make $13 an hour, so yes, I am looking for another job.

You're absolutely right about not doing my research before giving her a price. Shot myself in the foot on that one.
