[quote=Anonymous]I think this is going to be super hard to find. If you could even offer 2 hours of work a day, you might do better. If there is a chance you'll need driving, a high school kid in the neighborhood won't work, and any commute at all would make it hard to justify a 1-hour gig for less than, say $50. This is why babysitters, handymen, etc. often have a 3-4 hour minimum. That said, post your notice, and see what happens. If there's a close-by Y with a job board, school, church, or community center, you might also find a close-by neighbor looking to make a little extra. FWIW, once you have help, you are going to think of a MILLION things that person could do to make life easier. I can almost guarantee you that if you hire someone for 2-3 hours a day, you won't regret it (if you can afford it, of course). I would call it a "household assistant" or mother's helper, and emphasize that it's more household work than childcare.[/quote]
