[quote=Anonymous]We have a unique situation (not uncommon in healthcare but still) where we only need childcare two days a week but not the same two days. I work three 12s and Im senior enough one will always be on Sunday. So that leaves two weekdays. I have two older kids in elementary who use after care on those days. My two year old has a sitter who comes over somedays or we drop off to her house. Im ok with either arrangement, that’s not the issue. She is just a little underwhelming. Tv is on a lot, lots of sitting on the couch, typically calls off just enough where its semi annoying but not fireable. I do find myself a little jealous of other people who seem to have really energetic fun sitters but I also know quite a few friends who have had so many childcare issues I am afraid to rock the boat. The main things are totally fine, child is safe and fed and she genuinely likes DC and is a good person. But we will have fantastic weather days they don't do anything outside etc. Since I know it will be asked we pay her 140 dollars a day and she typically has DC about 6.5 hours or a little less. (First 2 /2.5 hours of my shift DC is still sleeping and DH gets kids ready). She also lives in our development so I know convenience can mean quite a bit. Thoughts?[/quote]
