I’m J. I’ve been with my partner for four years and we have a 5 week old son.
In my professional life I have worked for over a decade as a professional nanny - master’s degree, it’s not babysitting, yes like what the UK royal family has. Though I’ve only been a legitimate parent for a few weeks, I’ve seen that it isn’t very different from nannying in the mechanical aspects (changing a diaper is changing a diaper) only in the self-regulation/emotional/energy OF MYSELF aspects (with nannying, I could clock out and sleep), so I hope that some of my professional expertise can translate here.
