how to find a part-time mother's helper?

You mean a babysitter? Ask your friends, neighbors, a local elementary school, a daycare.

You need an au pair for these hours. Or alternatively, shift your work hours to a standard 9-5 so that you can hire a regular nanny, and separately hire a weekend babysitter

Good luck. Get an au pair.

I don’t think this is the OP.

You need to pray because this isn't going to happen.

For those hours, you need an au pair plus a babysitter (for the 7th day) or 2-3 babysitters. No one will work 7 days a week. And would be very hard to find one person who wants to work a split shift M-F.

+1 Those are terrible hours unless you have a live-in nanny. That the OP is there in the house doesn't make a difference--the person still has to work (and most nannies would prefer a situation where their employer isn't hovering around the whole time).

+2 How is that part-time? That's 7 hours a day (non-continuous ones--so this will be super-unattractive unless you find someone who lives really nearby) plus 8 hours on weekend. In fact you will owe overtime if you hire only one person. I suspect you would need to find 3 separate people (which will not be fun, because one of them will constantly be quitting because they find someone better).
