The day I turned from babysitter into a nanny

It all began a few days after watching the Disney Movie the Nanny Dairies that I had realized that I was slowly morphing into a nanny. Their mother would ask me to drive her children around in order to ensure their normal daily schedules. I don’t mind taking them around places to help pass the time. As a result, I replied yes to her request. It started off simply by asking if I minded dropping off Diana at dancing school and to go to the playground to occupy Alex.

I later became familiar with their family members by taking day trips to Chucky Cheese and play dates with their cousins. I finally realized the metamorphosis when I revolved my social life around my job. I would hesitate or think of alternatives before taking off and would also take the time to make sure that they were going to be ok while I was absent.

Diana and Alex enjoy my company and miss me when I’m not there. They make it hard to not give into them. I enjoy learning from them and I feel like we get along very well and that are bond will grow.
