I know a stripper who also works as a nanny, she tells me it’s not all that rare a thing around here. Part of it is the hours work well as a day shift/night shift thing, but more than that it makes sense, the skill sets actually line up pretty well for sex workers, especially the ones who’ve aged or birthed out of their prime earning potential (and don’t fool yourself, that’s what a lot of those Victorian and earlier nannies/governesses/wet nurses were) - on the one hand, making people feel loved and wanted, on the other hand setting and enforcing limits.
(I guess that skill set is why “bartender/owner” has always been a pretty common career progression there too.)
