The Reasons I Can't be a Nanny

So I was thinking and texting my niece. Oh how I love those rascally kids even though she is now in her twenties.Which then brought me to thinking about all the reasons I could never be a Nanny. I am sure I would love the job and excel at it beyond any other job. Yet here are my reasons why it isn't the job for me.

1. I get to attached. You see I am an over loving and caring person. So it doesn't take much for me to get attached to people and care about them. It is my blessing and curse all in one. It can work for me or against me.


2. When caring for another person's child 24/7 you have to remember they aren't your child. Yes, you are the person feeding them, clothing them, punishing them, teaching them, and all that wonderful stuff. Yet in the end they aren't yours to keep. In the end the parents can decide to take those children away. Hence why Number 1 would work against me.


3. I don't have a drivers license and most of the good Nanny jobs want you to be able to pick the kids up, drop them off, and run errands for them. That is kind of hard to do without a license.

Those are about the only reasons. Other than those reasons I think being a Nanny would be the best job ever. Imagine getting paid to teach a kid how to count, their alphabet, play with play doh, draw, and all those fun things that only kids and those taking care of kids get to do. Yep best job ever if you can remember it is a job and don't get to attached.
