Our vacation to being a part time nanny

June 2, 2022

It was May 24, when I decided to travel to my parents and siblings house here in Pasig, supposedly it was just a quick vacation coz one of my niece will celebrate her birthday, but unfortunately my sisters nanny bid goodbye the day after my niece birthday, she said her parents can't take care of her kids, and since they are still looking for nanny they ask our Mom if we can stay first with them and look after the kids coz both of them are working. My sister is working from home but in night shift and her husband is rotational schedule, and since I feel pity with the kid also and thier expenses so I said ok.

May 26 when we transfer here, at first it was ok, but as time passed by I feel so tired already, coz my nephew who needs extra attention is so maligalig, tho its not from time to time but mostly its during bedtime at night where his ligalig starts. He is not a type of kid who sleeps well maybe its one of the effect of his leukemia, once he wakes up he keeps ok scratching his body, his skin is not the normal type maybe thats one thing that affect his sleeping problem.

Sometimes I need to carry him just to let him fall asleep, but sometimes even he is so sleepy and he saw some lights he choose to play and walk around, and since I have Adrielle with me who is so selosa I need to manage between them and it exhaust me, even I want to say that I dont want to stay here anymore but I can't coz I feel pity with them too. So I sacrifice my vacation over looking after my nephew and also my plan of going home to Lucena will be after the Indepence day, coz my niece will celebrate her birthday and my deceased father also, its been very long time that we did not celebrate as family so I took the chance also.

Maybe this is one of the reason why the nanny can't stay longer coz Baby Mikmik needed much attention and care that they get tired, as I feel it even I am not more focus with him. Now there is another nanny who is applying and I dont know when they will hired her, and I am praying that this applicant can stay longer than the other nannies they hired before coz the parents need to work as the kids are extra pricey too, the medicines, soap, milk diapers and house they are renting and also the never ending bills.

My only prayer now is a nanny that have a wild understanding, long patience, will love Mikmik as her child and take extra careful of him and willing to sacrifice her love for Mikmik coz its what Mikmik needs especially when his being maligalig attack. If Adrielle is grown up, I am willing to take care of him but as of this moment Adrielle is so selosa so I can't take care of him that much.
