[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The least expensive options for school aged kids are before/aftercare through the county and an au pair. Those were our #1 and #2 plans. Trump has suspended the au pair program and the county is unlikely to offer before/aftercare. I personally haven't seen an kid activities that are offering camps where I am located. In fact several of our standby places have gone out of business. All of our summer camps have been cancelled. Has anyone seen these options for a 4 and 6 yo in Arlington? Maybe for older kids... That leaves a nanny. They ones I've spoken to want $27-30 per hour and a year commitment. That's insane COVID-19 pricing and isn't something anyone could have anticipated. [/quote] You think it’s crazy for someone to expect to make $50k/year (plus pay their own medical, dental, self-employment taxes, etc) so that you can go to work and make $150k? [/quote] How do you know PP doesn't herself make $50K?[/quote]
