First Week Down

I am about to start my second full week of being a nanny. I have to say that I was very leary of changing jobs. I have heard horror stories about nannies being miserable because the family they work for is so awful. Happily I do not have that issue. My family is wonderful!! They have two great kids, who I have so much fun with. We have a established routine that works really nicely, and that has a lot of flexibility. The two of them get along very nicely, and I do not have a hard time occupying both of their time. The four year old boy is the best. He is SUPER SUPER smart, like beyond his years smart. He loves to play games, to art, be creative. He just hates going outside, which his parents want him to do everyday. He goes to half day preschool he rides the bus and looks so cute getting on the bus everyday. His sister is almost two, she is this teeny tiny little thing that has an attitude of a teenager. I love her though, she throws these HUGE fits thinking that I will care. I think she is starting to understand that throwing tantrums isn't going to get her anywhere. Mom and Dad are very nice, and I already feel very comfortable with them. I know I can tell them anything about our day and they will listen and be happy with what went on. They are very giving and all about communication. I am very happy with my new job.
