[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I wasn't thinking of taking advantage of some SAHM! Good lord. I was looking to pay someone. If I can't find anyone, obviously I won't return to work at this time. Not sure why 'your kids your problem' needed to be said. I'm not looking to offload the kid for free - a) I would pay and b) if it isn't in the cards to go back to work right now, I will live. Changing schools may be an option in the future, but not now.

Thanks to those with helpful advice! I'm going to give it a try and see if I can get someone. Maybe a graduate student?? [/quote]

OP just out of curiosity, are you really able and willing to pay about $80/day for someone to drive your child to school?  Not including gas?   I really do think that's what it will take to hire someone.[/quote]

Nope.  If it costs that much, it's not in the cards. I was hoping more like $50-60/day.  (it's 1 hour to the school w/ traffic, 35 minutes back. then 35 minutes to school in the PM, 1 hour back home)  With that much, plus the toddler in day care, I would just be breaking even to go back to work BUT this arrangement would only be for a year, and going back to work would be good for my mental health.  I can't afford $80/day, so in that case the plan will have to wait a year til the oldest switches schools for middle school.  [/quote]
