Monday, December 29, 2008. As they sang in The Sound of Music:. So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, adieu. Adieu, adieu, to yieu and yieu and yieu.". I am still recovering from and working through this development. I am not sure if I will apply for other nanny positions or not. I am also not sure where that leaves this blog either way.

Tips and Ideas for the Modern Nanny. Wednesday, March 17, 2010. Iced coffee season is upon us and, if you're like me, you need some, especially in the morning. I need coffee basically all the time.

Tips and Ideas for the Modern Nanny. Tuesday, March 16, 2010. I am fortunate to be looking after two very spirited, very different little girls. One, C, is 4 1/2 and the other, S, is 2.

Both girls take various classes: C has soccer, gymnastics, swimming, and piano. S takes music. And goes to a play group at the family's church. Taking a class with your kids will benefit you...

Tips and Ideas for the Modern Nanny. Monday, March 15, 2010. Finding a Partner in Crime. I had been getting along pretty well on my own.casually meeting new friends at the park and interacting with people in our classes. But I wasn't really connecting with any parent/nanny or child.

http://mandypoppinsnyc.blogspot.com/2010/03/chalk-spinners.html
Tips and Ideas for the Modern Nanny. Tuesday, March 16, 2010. Warmer weather means fun outdoor toys! Today we tried Crayola's new 3D chalk. And their new chalk Spinners. The 3D chalk isn't all it's cracked up to be, but I thought the Spinners were pretty fun! Kids will love to express themselves outdoors with this fun activity and I guarantee you'll like it too! The kit comes with 2 spinners, chalk, a sharpener, and a spinner-release. Wind it up and let it spin you a beautiful design! I saw your nanny.

http://mandypoppinsnyc.blogspot.com/2010/03/march-is-national-craft-month.html
Tips and Ideas for the Modern Nanny. Thursday, March 18, 2010. March is National Craft Month! Michaels.com might be the only thing I need to say here. But it definitely isn't! Tip: If you have one near you, I strongly advise you to get to one and check out their kid section. But be warned: you WILL spend money! They have tons of great ideas for any kind of craft you can think of. But tell your boss first. Explain you'd like to get some crafting supplies and go in with a budget. Thursday, March 18, 2010.
