[quote=Anonymous]Hire a mother’s helper to give your nanny a break! At my nanny’s suggestion I had my friend’s preteen daughter come over for 2 hrs 2-3 afternoons a week to play with my older one while the younger one napped and my nanny had a “break” (in reality she’d use the time to fold laundry and tidy up). I’ll admit that I balked at first (especially since we were already paying her $30/hr, which was high 5 years ago) but now as a SAHM with two more kids (with naps that don’t align) I totally get it and still rely on a mother’s helper to have a few hours of sanity-saving kid-free time a week.
