[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have a nanny who is basically a driver and cleans up after kds and does their laundry. Travel for tournaments is hard and I kinda hate it, too. [/quote] +1. Our older two (12 and 15) play travel baseball and our youngest (8) has sports and activities but not travel sports. We have a nanny in the afternoons largely for this reason. Her primary responsibilities are making dinner, doing laundry and driving the kids to practices. While DH and I have demanding jobs, we do have some flexibility regarding where and when we work. For travel tournaments out of town, one of us takes the kid who is playing and the other stays home with the other kids. At 12 and 15, they’re self sufficient enough that we generally can work from the hotel while traveling with them. It was harder when they were younger and had to be supervised more closely. However, usually parents on the trip can tag team watching kids. [/quote]
