Anyone a Nanny?

So I'm having zero luck finding a teaching job and thinking about going the nanny route.

But, I think it's only going to be profitable if I can bring DD with me.  Does anyone do this?

My big plan is to finally do a Master's program in Speech Pathology (I did all the pre-requesistes a few years ago but never did the program).  

I'm hoping with an income again I can do it online and then go into that field eventually.

I'm just so frustrated with the lack of teaching jobs.

    I think there is a mom on the working moms board who nannies and takes their child with them.  You might be able to ask over there.  I know there is also a mom on there who allows her nanny to bring her grand daughter with.

    Thanks, I'm thinking this might be for me.  I already had a care.com account so I changed it a bit and applied for a few.  

    I just have to change something up, I'm having no luck getting a teaching job and am getting anxiety the longer times goes on that I have no job.  I've applied to everything and now that schools starting soon, there's not much out there.  I was hoping to have something by now and was close with two jobs but they were offered to other people.  Such a crappy time to be out of a teaching job. 

  • I am a nanny and I bring my DD with me. I love it! I found my job on care.com and I nanny other little girl the exact same age.
  • I nanny part time and bring DS with me, while I try to figure out my next career move. I've have a care.com, sittercity, and craigslist account. I found the family I'm working for now on craigslist and love them so much, but most of the people who reply to my ads there don't really follow through with an interview, even when they've asked me for one. Good luck!

  • I'm not a nanny but I'm an SLP. Just wanted to throw out there that I'm always willing to answer questions you might have when the time comes to start your grad program :)

    You should have no trouble finding a job once you're done with your CCCs!
