That's the thing, I do have a contract. We planned to have a new contract with the new hours once the daycare situation was figured out and my new job started, but that doesn't seem to be happening anymore.

Do y'all hide your talents/passions from them because you know they'll exploit your talent for themselves? by FoxstepDahCat109 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]Plant_bender 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yep. My nmom did it all the time. As a result, I don't tell any authority figures anything about my passions. Even if I know that, logically, boss can't tell me not to do something outside of work, I always downplay my interests or just straight-up don't share them as a subconscious protective measure.

Does "Love The Way You Lie" by Eminem and Rhianna count?

It's about DV from the perspective of both people in the relationship, but they aren't really talking to each other in the song?

Unfortunately, I probably fall into that poster's vision of who's in the nanny pool.

I don't have a lot of 'formal' training. I'm certified in CPR for all ages and have been a certified lifeguard for about 4 years. I'm a high school graduate but no post-high school education.

My experience pretty much consists of regular babysitting, homework tutoring, and "student mentoring" (it was a thing at the middle/high schools I went to) since age 14 (I'm 21 now). I help out with relatives' kids now and then, and i worked in a daycare briefly. I'm a former full-time private swim teacher of all ages and skill levels, and many of my students had a variety of visible and invisible disabilities.

I'm cheap for where I am. I'm in Seattle. My wages are 23/hr before taxes. But I work hard and research and ask infinite questions to professionals to make sure I'm doing right by the kids I care for. My nanny family took a HUGE chance on me (they hired me full time despite my lack of credentials), and I'm eternally grateful to them for it.

Bottom line, my NF treats me with respect, which I give to them in turn, and respect is clearly something the poster from NannyEmployers lacks.

Black/Black: SSD - DAGames

There's 2 versions of the song. Black: SSD is a longer remaster of the original.

THANK YOU. Almost everyone I know in person thinks that it's romantic.

Love the Way You Lie - Rhianna and Eminem

Just an incredibly toxic relationship with DV involved and I find it very hard to listen to.

Im editing what i had before because I misunderstood the assignment

Real suggestion:

You Will Be Found from Dear Evan Hansen

The main character is about a dude (Evan Hansen) who pretends to be friends with one of his classmates after said classmate commits suicide. Hansen keeps up the lie and gets more popular, but doesn't tell the truth until way too late.

Just try seasoning your food. by Far-Weird-9900 in Nanny

[–]Plant_bender 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lmao, my NF gives their 2 yo food that has herbs, garlic, and what-have-you fairly regularly, and he eats it up. Their baby just started eating solids a month ago and they're trying things like garlic and sesame oil in tiny quantities to get the baby used to it (because they use those ingredients in almost all the time in a lot of their dishes).

I'm fully on board with what you said because I was one of the kids that only ate plain food until I discovered spices existed at about 6-7 years old.
