If you see a nanny sitting down taking a break, le If you see a nanny sitting down taking a break, leave her alone. Let her take it.

Nannies are constantly working, and when they're not physically working, they're thinking about work. A few minutes to breathe isn't slacking, it's necessary.

"School's in session" doesn't mean your job descri "School's in session" doesn't mean your job description just changed. 

If it directly supports the kids? Fair game. If it supports the whole household? That's a different conversation, a different title, and yes, different compensation.

Nannying during school hours isn't a break, it's where the invisible work lives: extracurricular sign-ups, closet rotations, birthday and teacher gift prep, restocking snacks, staying two steps ahead so the kids' lives run smoothly whether you're physically there or not.

Being great at this job was never about clocked hours. It's about what you anticipate before anyone has to ask.

Know your value. Outline it. Get it in writing.
