She will also find out that she’s spending a good chunk of money on gas.

She will spend a good 2-4 hours a day on the road, especially as people return to the office in larger numbers. It depends on how desperate she is for the job but it is a grueling daily commute. Is your home near the Marc train?

1 hr from Germantown? Is it possible to avoid highways at all during rush hour?

Bad idea. You will regret it.

Do you have any other candidates to interview?

no, this is not realistic. It could easily take her 75+ minutes in the morning. Going home, I would imagine even longer. This could be theoretically possible, imho, if she was working from, say, 11 am to 7 pm or 8pm. Or doing this commute once or twice a week. but daily? no.
Our nanny commutes from Germantown to North Bethesda. She has come at different times over the years. The commute takes her a LONG time (I think usually 1 hour plus) and is unpredictable because there are so often huge tieups.

It's not so bad after 8:30, right?

Hi,

Prospective nanny thinks she can commute from Frederick to Rockville, to start her day at 9am. Is this even realistic?
Wouldn't she be exhausted upon arrival?
