✨✨Welcome to a day in my life: ✨✨Richmond
(a girl that works 9-3 pm / 4-10 pm )
Morning routine : I used to be a big gym girlie and always going to the gym in the morning before work. With me moving back to Virginia, I stopped going to the gym for 7 months and I am just starting to get back into my routines. (Trust me, my body is definitely feeling it) I usually trying to get to the gym around 5:30, sometimes I hate getting out of bed that early and end up going around 6/6:30.
When I get back home it’s usually around 7:30 ish, I always shower, make breakfast, coffee and spending time with God and listening to worship music before I fully start a busy day.
Breakfast : oats over night (20 grams of protein) mixed with a premier protein drink (30 grams of protein) and my coffee(which is always a 10/10 )
Snacks: packing fruit(strawberries, grapes, cantaloupe) I don’t really get that hungry while I’m at my nanny job.
Afternoon Routine: I usually only get an hour break between jobs when I work them the same day( which is 4 days a week) (3 days out of the week I’m working only my retail job) but on this day I got off at 12pm so I had time to clean my apartment and meal prep for my busy days.
Night Routine: I’m usually working late nights, so when I get home, I mostly only change into pajamas, wash my face, brushing my teeth and then just getting into bed to do the same thing the next day. ( I also clean when I get home, I don’t like to go to bed with a messy place)
If anyone is interested in being a nanny, I 100% recommend it! This is my 1st job and You can make good money ( takes care of my rent) and I just love the little girl I take care of. Your job can become family ❤️
My 2nd job is just retail at a store in the mall( this job pays for all of my other bills)
The capital one cafe is inside the short pump mall, it’s very quiet and very quick. If you’re in the area I definitely recommend going. If you have a capital one card you get 50% off drinks. (Maybe food also, I would have to go back again to check)
Embracing a busy lifestyle can be challenging, especially when managing multiple jobs. For those interested in the nanny profession, it's not just about financial gain; many find it incredibly rewarding to build bonds with the children they care for. A nanny typically works during school hours, providing flexibility for personal pursuits, such as fitness or hobbies. My mornings usually begin with a workout at around 5:30 AM, setting a positive tone for the day. Breakfast is a crucial part of my routine, often consisting of high-protein oats paired with coffee to fuel my morning. I find it essential to pack healthy snacks like fruits to keep my energy up between shifts. In addition to my nannying role, I work in retail during evenings, which helps cover my other expenses. For aspiring nannies, it’s essential to understand the dynamics of child care, which can be both fun and demanding. Maintaining a clean and peaceful home environment is also part of my philosophy; I prefer organizing my space before bed to ensure a fresh start the following day. Finally, I cannot recommend my go-to coffee spot, the Capital One Cafe, enough for a quiet place to recharge. If you're in the Richmond area, their offers make it worth a visit – especially for Capital One cardholders enjoying discounts. Your experience in balancing jobs, fitness, and personal time can lead to enriching life lessons and memorable experiences.
