[quote=Anonymous]Wow. Such a variety of responses here! I guess the true definition of the term varies from person to person. In my opinion, the job description depends on what the mother actually requests. But commonly, the mother will always remain in the home, she will just need an extra set of hands around. She may request: • Someone to assist w/actual "hands-on" baby/childcare. Including preparing formula, cleaning & sterilizing bottles, preparing meals/snacks, changing diapers, entertaining + supervising children so mom can shower/laundry/iron or clean house, etc. The Mother's Helper will typically make less money than a nanny or babysitter would. Some people even use the term "Mother's Helper" as a way to pay less money out. Yet the helper may find herself doing similar duties while having the stress of being under the mother's watchful eye. Mother's Helper: Childcare + Being Micromanaged While Doing So = Job From Hell.[/quote]
