[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Get an au pair- upfront agency fees pricey at $9k but weekly cost$200 and flex hours[/quote] Unfortunately we live in a 2 bed apt. I assume the $200/wk is if you house them?[/quote] Correct. You must provide a legal bedroom to an au pair as well as food. Between the housing, food and allowance, it’s actually not that cheap. The benefit is mostly to parents who absolutely need flexibility -meaning they need help for 3 hours in the morning and 3 hours after dinner. There’s no way you’d ever a nanny willing to agree to such crazy hours, but it’s doable with live-in help. An au-pair sounds very expensive considering what you actually need. Look for half day preschools. My kid goes from 9am-1pm MWF but her school has daily classes too. We are out in the suburbs, so I’m not even going to give you suggestions, but that’s the type of thing you need to look for. [/quote]
