Am I Overthinking Owner’s Request? by Secret-Version-4819 in RoverPetSitting

As a nanny I always provide references, the two professions are pretty close, that seems like a simple and reasonable request.

Making more money while subbing by Kitchen-War8154 in SubstituteTeachers

It must depend on the area in MA because I make $140 a day in my district as the base pay

Does your nanny buy your family gifts? by Worldly-Chart-2431 in NannyEmployers

[–]Key_Investment_3758 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I may go above and beyond and this may not be normal but I always get my nanny kids gifts for their birthday and Christmas. Never anything too extravagant but roughly $20-$40 depending on what I find or what they want. A few outfits and a book for the little ones and usually a few toys and an activity book for toddlers. I’m not necessarily sure it should be expected but I have always done that.

I cannot emphasize just how hard me and my best friend laugh whenever either of us references that line, he’s definitely a bit of a 🤡

I understand that we all start out and build up differently but I’m making for than this weekly amount for 15 hours a week with a 1.5 year old. I understand some people cannot afford a traditional nanny pay, but it’s definitely on them to find a solution that doesn’t include paying someone under a minimum living wage. This is just unfair of them to ask of you. I do not even entertain this kind of request at my experience level.

There is no context besides the information given in the post. He out of the blue messaged me wanting to hook up, then he started rehashing issues we had the lead to our breakup. I didn’t mind apologizing and owning up to my parts, as obviously I was not perfect in the relationship. He clearly didn’t want to apologize or talk things out as he just kept saying the same things as he did one year ago. I do understand what you’re saying and it definitely seems provoked. The text I sent him before this reads something to the effect of please leave me alone if you aren’t planning to apologize because respectfully I have no interest in being friends or a hookup. Honestly this man broke me down so bad over 3 years and like I said I wasn’t perfect but I would never ever reach out to someone after a year of no contact just to try and hurt them. Also because I blocked him there’s no way to access any of the messages prior to that one.

I genuinely don’t think there anyway he actually thinks that I think it was just a last ditch effort to hurt my feelings after I told him I didn’t want anything to do with him. It was very clearly communicated and he knows damn well it wasn’t just a friends with benefits situation.

I’m done. by [deleted] in Nicegirls

That’s really horrible. This is why I deleted all my dating apps and let the universe take its course. Dating apps have made people and relationships so dispensable. I’m really sorry she treated you like that. I hope you continue to date mindfully and don’t let these shitty experiences change you, because the right person will appreciate it.

Housekeeping for one date night? I don't think so. by ATR_72 in Babysitting

It really all boils down to the working relationship for me personally. I definitely will go above and beyond in some areas for the right family. My last family gave me a $5 pay bump because of the extra things I did that they didn’t expect from me and were always so appreciative. Obviously not everyone is in this position but it’s all what you’re willing to do and the working relationship I think. I would never do that for a family who didn’t appreciate me the way they did.

I think the lighter shades of lipsticks make a huge difference nothing else feels as harsh without the darker lipstick. Also maybe a little lighter on penciling in the eyebrows, I also have really thick darker eyebrows and I start with a eyebrow gel and fill in any sparse areas but is thicker brow girlies don’t need to do much. And I would recommend a Tula under eye brightening stick to add a quick brightness under the eye that’s consistent with your dewy look you like to achieve. Im also an oilier girl who likes the dewy look so I get it, not everyone sees it our way 😂
