[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^yep, hire your village if you don't have one locally. I used Care.com and it has been great. Also ask your friends if they have a favorite daycare teacher who babysits on the side. [b]And make friends with other moms because that's where you'll get good babysitter/nanny recs, or offers to help watch the kids[/b].[/quote] This is essential. One of the best things when I was a SAHM with two little kids was being part of my mom's club babysitting co-op. As the kids got into ES, trading playdates and babysitting with parents of the kids' friends helped a lot. We also found babysitters through our church's youth group.[/quote]
