I’m the nanny dealing with NK10 who hates my guts. It’s been escalating. A week ago she screamed in my face until I had a panic attack. My bosses are trying to support me but also not wanting to consistently address her behavior because they are concerned she will feel unsupported (I know) and they have to share some hard news with her soon. I’m glad they’re trying and I’ve gotten myself in a terrible financial situation so I don’t really have any other options (I’ve been looking). Anyway, I just need to get this off my chest because I’m overwhelming the lovely people in my life with my stresses.

This week NK10 was supposed to have camp but refused, which I can understand with her mental health how it is. However, she can’t stand me being in the house. She tried to chase me out of the house, screaming to the boys (7 & 5) that she would “save them from that monster” (me). MB had to physically restrain her from running to us. I was extremely anxious trying to get the boys to buckle up so we could leave.

And to the reason of my dang post! I have to keep the boys out of the house all day which is truly exhausting for them and they’ve been begging me to go home. Tomorrow I have to keep them out from 8:30-6:30. It’s exhausting for all of us and it doesn’t feel sustainable but ultimately they both have to work. It’s truly an impossible situation. I asked for a massive raise on Monday and I’m expecting to hear back by the end of the week, wish me luck.
