[quote=Anonymous]Worth it or not depends on the family. My last afterschool gig I washed/dried/folded kids' laundry, started dinner for them a few times per week, drove them to activities, packed snacks and lunches, supervised homework and baths as needed. I also spent about 20 hours per week with their kids, was the first person they saw after a long day and the person who helped them learn how to unwind, communicate successfully with siblings and manage their time. If you were just picking them up from the bus stop, then it might not matter much, but even then I would want someone more competent than a teen to help tease out why my first grader is upset or my second grader is more amped than usual.[/quote]
