[quote=Anonymous]I did this. I found 5 PM to 8 PM the toughest time to juggle all three kids, plus dinner plus bedtime. Having another set of hands was AWESOME. She and I tag teamed - maybe I'd make dinner and she'd take them on a walk, or she'd do bath with 1 and I'd read to 2. If DH was around, even better - the kids loved getting one on one attention. I don't remember being particular about the job title, whether it's nanny or mother's helper. My person was 19 years old, not in college, figuring out life. I paid her $20/hr. The job was super flexible, we planned on Mon-Fri and if she couldn't make it one day, no big deal. Honestly she became like family. She was with us for maybe a year and then went on to a "real" job, which we were very supportive of![/quote]
