[quote=Anonymous]OP, ad hoc childcare WILL be problematic if your depth chart is only 3-4 deep and you're only giving a few days' notice for when you'll need childcare -- ESPECIALLY if it's a volunteer thing. You'll be making call after call, wondering if neighbor X is busy Friday or friend Y's kid is sick ... much easier, logistically, to pay someone to look after your kid every Thursday and Friday. (Of course, you'll have the usual nanny headaches, but such is life.) Now if you have something that's guaranteed in your depth chart (e.g. friend Y and her nanny say it's ok to drop your kid off with the nanny for A dollars a day and B times a week), that mitigates it a LOT. Also, OP, you didn't mention you "weren't in the immediate DC area" -- I'm guessing something like Leesburg/Frederick/Annapolis or even Winchester/Fredericksburg/Culpeper/Hagerstown. So that PP's wondering why you couldn't find another volunteering gig wasn't all that unreasonable. [/quote]
