New position

I just got hired into a new nanny position! I'm very relieved and excited. The parents seem really great and somewhat laid-back. The kids are absolutely adorable and intelligent. There's three of them, so I'm going to have my hands full. Ages 5, 7 and 9. One girl and two boys. This position is much closer to my home than the last one was, so that's awesome. I'll also be walking the two (big) dogs. I opted to do this, since I really love being around dogs. I haven't been around big ones in a while, though, so it'll definitely be something to get used to! I'm up for a challenge, though. I really think I'll be happier here.

Well, I guess you're really going to be pretty busy. With three kids to take care of, I believe it would really be a challenge. But personally, I also like children, specially the young ones. But I really haven't been nannying as a job; but merely as a pastime. And with the additional load of walking the dogs, well, best of luck & do take good care of yourself & the kids.

Yep, there's a lot of running around involved, due to sports and activities. I don't mind being busy, though! You should look into nannying as a career if you love children so much. It's really rewarding and it pays pretty well. Thanks for your comment! -Marisa

Yes, excitement is always a plus! At least with nannying, I know there'll never be a dull moment. lol. I figure that going into it with an upbeat attitude is the key to success. :) Thanks for your comment!
