[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think your best bet is a mature high school student that lives very close by (walking/biking distance.) You might even want to split the job into two (one doing M/W/F and the other doing T/TH) so if one of them goes on vacation or is sick, the other one might be able to fill in. Most SAHMs are not going to want to take this on. [b] They stay home so they can care for their own kids, not someone else's. They stay home so they have the flexibility to sign their kid up for classes/sports/lessons/appointments any time after school. They aren't going to want to tell their own kid "No, you can't do the 4 o'clock ballet class because we need to stay home with Larla."[/b] College students can be good, but if they are from out of the area and go "home" for breaks, you may need to find separate coverage for those times, as they often won't match up exactly with elementary school breaks. [/quote] Agree most other SAHMs would never agree to something like this.[/quote] x100000 Halle - freaking - lujah[/quote]
