Nanny-ing.

Yeah, so I got the job. I put in my two weeks notice at the preschool. I'm sad to be leaving the school, because I've gotten attached to a lot of the kids. I also really enjoy most of the people I work with. I just feel like...I don't know. Time for a change, I guess. More money, closer to home--and I can build a relationship with one particular family. I'll be helping to RAISE their kids (at least for the next year or two, anyway). That's a pretty big deal.

I've been doing my homework, too. I've been watching Nanny 911 on Fox every Wednesday night, and I ordered a book from Amazon called "The Nanny Textbook." I also ordered "You'll Never Nanny in This Town Again" (about nannies in Hollywood--supposed to be REALLY good).

So...yeah. I feel torn. It's bittersweet.

Yay Jen! This will allow you more one on one time with each child to really make a difference in their lives! How cool!

I'm reading that other nanny book, You'll Never Nanny in This Town Again (about Hollywood nannies)--SO GOOD. Funny and sad.
