Chapter 555 Selecting a Nanny
"Olive, you know how much I loved my job, so I don't want to persuade you to give up on your career that you love. But - you are different
now, you have a family, you have children, and at least you need to find a balance between them and your work."
Moreover, I am really afraid that you exhausted yourself. Although I have never given birth to a child, I know that childbirth can cause irreversible damage to a woman's body. You have not even been in labor for a year, so don't be too hard on yourself
Cinder patted my shoulder, his eyes filled with concern
To be honest, it is rare for me to hear such words from Cinder today. If it were before I got married, she would definitely have urged me to strive for my career without hesitation. But now, she even uses the word "balance" to describe the relationships in my life
So, we can become friends not because she and I always have the same life plans or career ideals. It is because no matter what stage of life, no matter what choices I make, Cinder can always stand in my shoes and do her best to find the best solution for me
"T understand what you're worried about, Cinder. Actually, even if you didn't mention it today, I had already wanted to tell you that before I gave birth, I had a very idealistic imagination about life. I thought I could balance both family and work, but in reality, it wasn't like that."
I rested my head on the sofa cushion and truly felt a bit tired
Yes, I used to think that the economic foundation determined everything. I thought that Aaron and I would probably never have any financial worries in our small family, so I didn't have to juggle between earning money to support the family like most working-class women, and taking care of my husband and children. Even if I went to work, my life would definitely be much easier than most people
But now it seems that my thoughts were completely wrong
There are still too many things in this world that money cannot solve, and running a household 1s not a guarantee of success just by having money
Children need enough care, and couples also
need occasional romance. It is really difficult not to feel exhausted while balancing work and fulfilling these needs
I am like this, and so is Aaron
He has been expressing his attachment to me frequently in some awkward ways these days, and I couldn't turn a blind eye to all of this
"So... [need to consider getting the nanny that Mr. Morris had previously hired for the children back before next week, at least this way the children will avoid the hassle of changing activity locations frequently during the day
However, she seems to calculate her salary based on the duration of the baby's educational program, so I don't know if she will accept a full-day caretaking job."
I was calculating while speaking to Mr. Morris,
asking him about the news of that nanny. After all, it is more reassuring to have someone who has had previous contact when looking for a caregiver for the children
But unfortunately, when I called Mr. Morris the
next day, I was informed that the nanny had already left New York
She participated in the selection of an international organization and has now been working 1n remote areas of other continents to provide educational assistance for preschool children
After hanging up the phone, I thanked Mr
Morris and praised Aaron for the nanny's actions, but couldn't help feeling a bit unlucky
After much difficulty, a reliable candidate was finally thought of. But now, it's necessary to
start the process of screening suitable childcare providers all over again

"It's okay, baby, we can take it slow. Don't be anxious Just because we're short on time. You happen to have a leave recently, so you can start by selecting some resumes of childcare providers. If it doesn't work out, I can work from home for a while. Anyway, if we're going to hire a nanny to come to our house, our current apartment is really not big enough. We need to plan for moving while interviewing the babysitters."
Aaron leaned against my vanity as he watched me apply lipstick to my lips. After I finished, he gently wiped away a small smudge of color that had gone beyond the edges of my lips. The movement of his fingers was incredibly gentle, and it successfully calmed my slightly anxious heart
I agreed with his proposal, so the two of us immediately started working together. I was responsible for screening the resumes of various childcare providers on the website, exchanging contact information with them, and scheduling interview times
Aaron quickly contacted the several decoration companies that were chosen last time and instructed them to handle the necessary renovations in the new house within ten days, according to the design ideas I provided
In this way, we solved the problem much faster
The renovation work of the new house had just begun, and I had also successfully scheduled the first interview with a nanny who came to our door
However, the process of selecting a suitable nanny was far from as smooth as I had
imagined
