[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would look at au pair or try to make a connection on care.com for a college kid who has some flexibility that could help at least part of those days.[/quote] A college kid won't want to take care of a sick kid, and risk getting sick themselves. [/quote] It probably depends on how sick. For enough money, babysitting someone with an undefined minor illness that adults aren't likely to catch vs COVID? Like the one-day illnesses? That should be doable, especially if OP and DH are in the house to supervise, take breaks and assist with annoying things like potty. [/quote] Pre covid our college sitter would watch sick kids no problem. Covid made it weird and I haven’t tried again, but most college kids are completely over covid already and likely won’t care.
