[quote=Anonymous]How about trying to find a part-time mother's helper to help the grandparents. During the summer, you can get a high school student and then when school starts, have them come over after school. Pay them to help keep the toddler engaged so that the grandparents can rest or take care of other things (like meals, chores, cleaning up, etc). We have several older kids in our neighborhood who have played with my kids when they were little at the playground or when they see them out in the neighborhood. Some of them would be happy to earn some spending money after school and during the summer. Actually, even a middle school student might be interested in the same. [/quote]
