[quote=Anonymous]I think it makes sense for some families. It can be equated to a governess, or homeschooling or a one-room-schoolhouse type of arrangement with the benefit of full-time childcare so that the WFH or WOH parents can...work! I am not a fan of homeschooling in general because I think there is so much socialization that is part of the normal school environment but I can see the attraction for some families with younger children. I think this would be more of a long-term solution rather than stop-gap. The governess or teacher would definitely want job stability and benefits. OTH a good au pair or a good nanny who is already in place with a family is able to monitor online learning and provide support for kids. If you have one or you can get one then that is probably a better option rather than risk losing your kid's spot at the private school you've chosen.[/quote]
