I was a live-in nanny for 1 year 1/2. There, I watched 6 kids while the father worked. I helped care for the kids before and after school. Two were too young to attend school, so I cared for all their needs during the day. I helped prepare all the meals. I was there when the kids didn't have school to care for all of them.
