[quote=Anonymous]It's not that hard. 3 days might be tougher than 4 but we've done both. I agree with the above poster that you need to start by figuring out your schedule. If you truly have flexibility, you may be able to hire a student but our first experience with this did not work out AT ALL. We eventually found an older student (in her mid-30s) who really only wanted 3 days/week. We were able to change days based on her semester which helped. We now have a 4 day/week nanny who is also great. I was worried about having someone who is so close to FT (we guarantee 36 hours/week but often it's more like 37-38) but our nanny has loved having Fridays off. I do think we pay on the higher end. We also offer vacation, paid holidays, etc but I don't think that's all that special/unusual around here. [/quote]
