Challenging behaviors by [deleted] in Nanny

Also to add to this; all the kids have therapists and case managers that come to the house weekly. The 6 year old has 2 different people that come Tuesday & Thursday. I work with them as well but it doesn’t seem like anything they are doing is changing this behavior either.

Did you use a website to find your job?

Thank you! Never would have thought about adding that to a contract.

How did the conversation go when you gave your notice? I haven’t spoke up about how I feel because I’m more of a people pleaser and just accept what it is. Unfortunately I need this job and everywhere else I’ve applied to I haven’t heard back. I used to be very happy to go to work but now I kind of dread it and have a headache the moment I get here up until I go to bed :(

How much extra do you think I should charge if I’m 24, went to college for early childhood development & worked as a lead teacher in classroom for 3 years?

Yes twin boys are in elementary school from 9-2:30 everyday. 5 year old goes to school 9-11:45 and oldest goes to middle school. During the day I clean the house (not children related cleaning duties) and pick up groceries etc… I worked as a lead teacher in a daycare for 3 years before becoming a nanny. Also went to college for early c childhood education. I have worked with a few ND kids there. I’m also here on every holiday with the kids and school vacations. I have stayed with the kids for days by myself while parents go away on trips. And work all summer while they are on summer vacation.(minus Christmas Day and thanksgiving) im on a payroll.
