[quote=Anonymous]My Mom would come for trips of about 5 nights when the kids were small. When they got a bit older, I hired a friend's nanny to stay with them while we went on a long weekend trip for a child-free wedding. I have asked a relative who's an empty nester to stay with one kid while we took the other to a far-flung sports tournament. And, I asked a family friend to pick up our youngest from the airport and have him sleep over while we were picking up our oldest at college. Once, a middle school parent asked me if I'd be able to host their son for a few school nights while she & her husband were on overlapping work trips in Europe. He was a great kid and we were happy to have him for a few days. My DS thought he hit the jackpot when I told him about it. Weekday sleepovers![/quote]
