[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you want to make some extra cash while being with your baby, a much easier path to the amount of money you are talking about would be:
1. Cut expenses by taking K out of private school. You are in Arlington, my guess is public K will be fine.
2. Use your teaching license to get a job with one of the online English teaching companies as mentioned here. You have to be able to do this without distractions and with your webcam on but you can make 14-26/hour. Take the early morning and some night shifts while your DH is home and the kids are sleeping.[/quote]

Op here. Thanks for these suggestions. I am more looking at it from standpoint of want quality care next year during uncertain times— and knowing I have friends who are also worried about the same.  Also have no idea what the schools will be like next year. I stayed home with my last one and found part time employment no problem, it just seemed that it wasn’t worth it as I was paying full price but only needed part time care. I wouldn’t want to work something during odd hours because I would want that time for my K and DH.

With all due respect, I think you are underestimating how much effort/time/stress it would be to do this in home childcare thing properly. it isn't just going to be hectic during the day (do you know any triplet moms?), there is a lot of paperwork, parent emails, making menus, etc. that is required at nighttime/off-hours when you run an in-home.

I would much rather work a few hours while my kids are sleeping (you aren't missing out on quality time) each night/morning.[/quote]
