[quote=Anonymous]DH and I both work. We have an au pair for the flexible care possibilities -- she gets the three kids up and to school in the morning, and gets them after school and takes them to activities. My kids are 7, 10, and 12, and each has different school start times as well as various before- or after-school activities two to three times per week each -- not excessive IMO, but with 3 kids it's a lot of juggling that neither DH nor I would be able to do. They also have to do music practice daily. I work for a non-profit and my hours are somewhat flexible, but DH has to travel 2-3 days every week. With 3 kids, the numbers really work out well for having an au pair vis-a-vis aftercare and the flexibility is fantastic. Plus our APs have been fabulous additions to our family and our kids have loved all of them.[/quote]
