I'm still considering what I am going to do to make some money for a 2 to 5 years. I really don't want to go live with older difficult child, although they have asked me. That probably means fast food or some other similar job if I go there and they really don't have room for me.
As I've been examining the choices, I've decided I would like to become a live-in nanny. I'm a retired teacher with a master's degree; I've raised 2 kids; I'm definitely qualified. I've talked to several people who have actually been there done that and it sounds like something I'm qualified for, I could do without losing my mind, and would give me enough money for what I need. There are lots of nanny agencies online but I don't trust them. They want you to pay a fee and there is no guarantee you'll ever hear from them again. I did get the name of a reliable agency in the Washington D.C. area from a friend who actually was placed by them and I did apply. I can basically relocate anywhere, as long as it is a live-in position. I would prefer to go east, rather than west but that is not carved in granite.
If any of you have experience with any reliable agencies, either as nannies or as consumers, please let me know as I need to apply with more than one agency if I hope to get a job.
Thanks
