+1 or share a nanny with another family during that time.Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:What do you do? Just found out the school we were matched with doesn't have beforecare, but opens its doors at 8:10. I would need to drop the kids off someplace at 7:30 to make it to work on time. Is getting a nanny worth the 45 minutes? If so what are the rates for this set up?
Thanks!
Find a neighbor / friend who would be willing to watch your kids in the am and take everyone to school and pay him/her? Negotiate new schedule at work (e.g. give up lunch/stay later/work remotely in evening)?

School opens its door at 8:10 as well, but I would need to drop the kids off someplace by 7:30. I could ask one of the parents or teachers aide, but is $15/day fair?

I'm a teacher and single parent, so I don't have the option to change my schedule. I can't get from the school to work by 8:00. I have no idea what I'm going to do in the fall.
Wasn't it a factor in deciding in where to apply? Why even apply to a school where you can't make it there on time each day?
