[quote=Anonymous]OP, given that whomever you would hire will have several months on the job before you're home on maternity leave, and your leave is relatively short, I would say just hire the best person who you think will fit the long-term position. Be clear when interviewing about the plan for your maternity leave and the job fluctuations that will happen in the first 6-9 months on the job. Pick someone who feels like an ally and shows a comfort level with the variations in those first months. Pick someone you think will handle the kids in the way you want (you have an advantage over first time moms in this arena - you already know your approach to sleep training, scheduling, discipline, etc...). Pick someone whose company you enjoy. Pick someone who seems to have a flexible attitude (not someone who thrives in a very scheduled environment). Try to find someone who has worked with families in similarly evolving circumstances. Etc... Good luck! - MB[/quote]
