[quote=Anonymous]It's hard to tell when your kids are little what you will need. My kids are old enough to stay home alone in the afternoon but often that is not practical. My 5th grader gets driven both ways to school so most days my 8th grader lets himself into the house. He is usually home alone for about an hour until my nanny gets back with the 5th grader. Then sometimes one of them stays alone and my nanny takes the other to an activity. While both of mine are fine to stay home for a few hours, I have a nanny to drive my kids to activities or just start dinner while the kids are doing homework. In any given week, they each have hours alone and that's fine. If your kids are more into staying home or have activities at home or school, then you don't need as much help. If your kids need to be driven places, then you need someone to help you. [/quote]
