In this episode, I speak with Evie to discuss a situation many career nannies eventually face: the day the children they've helped raise head off to school full-time. Rather than seeing it as the end of a chapter, Evie turned this common transition into an exciting new career, partnering with her nanny family to help launch a successful company. Join us as she shares her unique journey, the lessons she learned, and how one chapter led to another.
