[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you could look into getting a college student for regular after school care and the summers - a lot of college kids would presumably want a summer job, or having a college student for the school year and someone new full-time just for the summer. For snow days you could see if there is a local family with a nanny already who your kids could join - obviously for extra pay for the nanny and some sort of perk for the hosting family ([b]idk, bring in cake?[/b]). Snow days aren't that common so it should work out. In case the kids are sick and have to stay home, you could have a roster of several college students who wouldn't mind picking up a bit of work in the mornings. I say several as you wouldn't want to pay guaranteed hours so it's better to have several options in case they're already working or have class that day.[/quote]

Cake may be a perk to the hosting family, but if you think it's appropriate, bring it when your kids are picked up, not when they are dropped off!  Nannies don't want to deal with lots of kids and a cake sitting on the counter![/quote]
