[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We never did nanny/au pair yet. But my third was born when the oldest went to K, so we never had three kids too young for school at once. My husband is a teacher and handles summers. So the economics of a nanny never worked out. More than infant care, think about 3-4 middle schoolers, each with one practice and one game a week (all over the county). That’s when things get tricky even if you make each kid pick one activity per season. How will you handle it if Kid A has soccer at 6, Kid B has baseball at 6:30, and Kid C has soccer at 7, all in different places and Kid D is five and needs to be fed/asleep somehow? [/quote] +2 it’s so easy to outsource everything when kids are young but once all these extracurriculars/sports start up it’s a whole lot harder! [/quote]
