Hi everyone, it’s Casey from Nanny Parent Connection. Today, we want to chat about a topic that’s super important but often overlooked — finding time to take breaks as a nanny.

One major reason it’s hard to take breaks is that our schedules are unpredictable. Kids have a knack for needing something right when you think you can sit down. Nap times can be inconsistent, and emergencies or unexpected tasks can pop up out of nowhere.

Let’s dive into why it’s so challenging for child care providers to get those much-needed breaks. Watch the video to check out some strategies that might help!

Today, I discuss nanny rest breaks and how to ensure that your nanny has the opportunity to sit down and relax during the day. Often, I think parents forget that their nanny needs to take breaks during the day!

Parents – make sure you have clear communication with your nanny about their daily workload so that they have time for breaks and to eat. I have found that having a specific conversation about rest breaks with my nanny creates an atmosphere where they feel comfortable and welcome to take a breather and rest for a bit.
