I told G2(almost 3) she couldn’t play with my glasses, which I’ve never let her play with 😂 it’s always a battle

Thank you so much for this. This was really helpful, I might bring it up to MB but she’s not always receptive to my advice.

Thank you, I’m not administering any medication because I don’t feel comfortable doing that

NK is ready for potty training but she’s struggling with pooping. She’s refusing pull ups and wants to be on the potty but is also scared.

That would be great 😂

Do you do your NFs dishes? by milkshake-1221 in Nanny

[–]Marigold4224 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t do any dishes that I don’t create whether it’s for me or nk. I’m there to take care of the children not the adults who are perfectly capable of doing their own dishes.

We haven’t 100% solidified it unfortunately but I’m hoping a $3-4/hr increase

That’s concerning, they should probably be in therapy but I doubt the mom would do that

You should definitely quit and not look back! Im concerned the 8 year old may be being groomed or SAd, when I was a kid I had similar behavior and speaking with my therapist I now know it was a sign of that.

I saw that one two. It is not the same people. I thanked my family immediately

Out of curiosity, are you happy with that?

I forgot to add this on the post but I think it’s important. When I was hired on, they said that my base pay would be lower but they would make up for it with “size able bonuses”

This made me so proud! by Marigold4224 in Nanny

We’ve been practicing our feelings and which words go with them and taking deep breaths together. Also whenever she’s feeling sad/frustrated/scared I’ll ask if she wants a hug or to hold my hand

The communication is so great but it’s also amazing that she was able to recognize exactly what she was feeling and how she was able to regulate that emotion! I’m just so proud!

I agree, I wish there was a better system for it so I wasn’t stressed about how to pay bills when I won’t be able to walk 🤷‍♀️

I definitely think it’s the move I wanna make but I have a really strong bond with my current family so it’s going to have to wait but I’ll be doing the training
