Many of you that read this blog are not only gardeners but parents as well. I was wondering if any of you ever hired Nannies for your children?
My sister had twins and she had her own business so she ended up hiring a few different nannies until her children were old enough to attend school full time.
I even had a nanny when I was young. I was the last of five children and my mom needed to get back to work with five kids to care for so she hired an older woman to be my nanny. I actually believe my very first memories are of my nanny.
I think that if you manage to find the right nanny for your children, and one that fits in with the rest of the family that it can be a great experience. It allows parents to get back to work and gives them some peace of mind that their young children are being cared for properly.
I didn’t realize this, having no children of my own yet, that there are places on line where you can find nannies. Like this one – Nanny Sydney – that specializes in finding nannies for homes in Sydney Australia. I’d imagine that there are sites like this all over the world.
I know that nannies aren’t for everyone but I just thought I’d bring up my own pleasant experiences from a child’s point of view. My nanny was fantastic. As I said, she was an older lady. Perhaps that’s why she was so good. She really wanted to care for a child. It wasn’t just a job to her.
