[quote=Anonymous] Anytime there is a thread where the parents want more than minimal help with cleaning and cooking,  responses all say “that is not a nanny. That is a housekeeper who also babysits.“ Well, how do I hire that? I am a stay at home mom of three kids in elementary and preschool and between school and afterschool activities I don’t really want to outsource childcare. I barely get enough time with them as it is. What I really need help with is folding the massive piles of laundry, chopping some veggies for dinner, And the sweeping and mopping at the end of the day in the kitchen. But it would also be supremely helpful if I could find someone who is willing and able to do one of those tasks while also  keeping an eye on one or two kids playing in the playroom while I shuttle the other one or two to an activity. My kids love all of their activities, but with three of them in different things, it feels like they all spend way too much time in the car or cooped up and I would love them to be able to just stay home and play after school if it is not their turn to go to swim practice or something like that.  I am sure I could find someone if I were looking for full-time, but I’m really only looking for part-time. Thoughts on where to find  someone? My husband is really ramping up at work and our life is getting increasingly crazy. [/quote]
