The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part about being a nanny is loving and caring for the children as if they were your own. When you love and care for children, you stop seeing your job as just a job. You care about the children's happiness and overall well being and you put their needs before your own. When you love the children, you go home and do research on how to best meet the needs of the children in your care. You don't stop at meeting simple standards, you go beyond what is required of you.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my favorite memories was going to Cumberland island with the children I worked with. It was a long, but enjoyable day. We went out on their Father's boat, saw the wild horses on the island, walked the trail to the beach, enjoyed the beach, and learned some of the history of the island.
