For 10 years, my mom was the director of an in-home daycare facility and I assisted her with the children there. The summer I was 14, I spent a week upstate as a nanny to my 1-year-old and 2-month-old cousins. I was a nanny for a family with a 7 and 3-year-old. I also occasionally care for two children ages 3 and 1.
