Full Time Nanny & House Manager - Shelby Strachan


Listen Later

Have you ever thought of becoming a full time nanny? I have and I always wondered what it would be like to be a full time nanny year round for a career.

 

I nannied for a summer in college and loved it, but had the idea that society didnt accept a college educated person to be a nanny. I want to say that narrative is so dumb. And who actually really is "society?" I don't care what people think of my career.

 

Shelby loves kids and loves being a nanny. She tried out corporate after college and like many of us, knew that it wasn't it for her.

 

Now as a full time nanny and house manager to families in the Washington DC area, she is here today to share with us her pros and cons of this career.

 

Hint: You can make some serious money doing this job!

 

What I didn't expect to know until meeting with Shelby is how entrepreneurial this career can be! Even though you are working for a family who is technically your boss, you have the responsibilities and freedom that many entrepreneurs have as well!

 

Shelby shares with us the typical career path for nannies and house managers, she defines what a house manager is, what that can look like specifically for high net worth individuals, how she gets clients, the community she has built on TikTok sharing her life as a nanny and more!
