Garrett Park Elementary School After School Care

[[e-mail]]

Hello All,

School starts in two weeks, and -- having just moved to the area -- I'm scrambling to secure after school care for my soon-to-be 1st and 5th graders. I live in north Bethesda, near the Grosvenor metro (red line), and I'm seeking a reliable babysitter/nanny to meet the children when they get off the bus, start homework with them and begin to prepare dinner. The hours are roughly 2:30 - 6:30, Monday to Friday. The pay is negotiable. Ideally this person's native language is English or is very proficient in Engligh, so as to be of help with homwork. If you, or anyone you know, are interested, please reply.

Or, alternatively, if you have any helpful information about after school programs or private arrangements for students attending Garrett Park, I would greatly appreciate your insight!

Many thanks,
Kathryn

You should contact the school - they have an aftercare program on site - it may be filled, but worth looking into. I did hear something at the beginning of the summer about bussing to Bethesda Country Day School for before/after care, but I don't know what came of it. Good luck - and looking forward to seeing you (fellow parent - but a Kindergarten child).

Hi there,

Thanks for the reply. The on-site program has space for one not both of my girls. And, I'll call the Day School.

Thanks again!
