sorry I combined 1sttimemummy comment in my head with your post.

@mrsremack, alternate care? what do you mean? I can't predict the future but I don't plan on taking more than 2 weeks off if I'm working during the time I deliver. I would tell them this. And hopefully that will give them a sense of comfort knowing I plan on working as soon as I can. I will be exhausted but that's motherhood

As a former nanny myself I totally get your conflict but I would say just be respectful of the fact that they will need to find alternate care eventually, at least for right after you deliver, and that most families are understanding as long as you are honest and upfront with them. Not at all saying to tell them yet but if it were to come up also be sure you are not deceptive as that will ruin their trust and any possibility of good recommendations later.

I'm doing the same haha either 2nd trimester or when I start showing. I also just started with this family so I'm worried about telling them :/

@sydandchuck, lol exactly...

@baby_lillis, Thank u! Who's business is it anyway beside the babies mommy and daddy! lol Good to know I'm not the only one

I do this, too😂😂😂nobody knows I'm pregnant just my sister, daughter and father of my child. It's not wrong what you're doing. You'll tell them when you're ready is all, lol

@1sttimemummy, what about you?

I was thinking about not saying anything until its noticeable. Although I don't know if they will be OK with the secrecy.. I just started this job

When do you plan on telling them

@1sttimemummy, same here. the bloat is what 'could' give it away. I'm a small sized girl so they could just think I ate a lot that day lol

I'm not telling my work yet either. I've just been wearing baggy shirts or coats. I'm a nanny and not far along yet though so it's pretty easy haha I do have bad bloat though!
