[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I see a lot of people suggesting hiring different sources but I’m not sure I’d have the mental energy for that. I’d rather interview some qualified Nannie’s that are willing to do household tasks too, but one that I can trust so that it can hopefully be someone that stays with my family for several years.[/quote]

You are overthinking.  If you want to quit, do so.  If you want a nanny, go that route, but most nannies do not cook and clean, except for the kids.

I would rather stay in the work force.  So with elementary school I go the easiest route:

1. Hire a weekly cleaning company. $125-$150 a week.  Go with a company that has the staff and has vetted their employees.  Merry Maids, The Cleaning Authority, etc.

2. Use the after school care at your elementary school.  They are already set up for days off. Our elementary school uses Bar-T.  They are like $600 or so a month.

3. Use a meal order service

Three kids - $1500
Cleaning Service weekly - $600
Hello Fresh/Every Plate meal delivery - $480 (you have to cook, but at least you don't have to think or shop)

$2600 monthly to ease your plate. Still manageable and you keep your career. You do not have to hire, interview, provided benefits, etc.[/quote].

Yep. This is what most middle class people do, like us![/quote]
