[quote=Anonymous]Goodness, what a workload! Here's what I suggest: 1. Adjust your hours so that you only need care for 45 hours a week, the maximum number of hours an au pair can work. 2. Hire an au pair whose primary responsibility during the day is your baby and then your older kids for just a few hours (3:30-6:30pm after school) till you guys get home. After placement fees, au pairs get paid $250 a week. Or hire a nanny and pay a rate of $15-$18 an hour when she has baby solo and $25 an hour when she has all four kids. 3. Send your three year old twins to preschool. They'll learn more and socialize better and, frankly, it's money well spent. 4. Hire a sitter/mom's helper whose job is to pick the older kids up from school and bring them home or to activities and then home. The going rate for something like this is $15-$20 an hour. This person, frankly, need only work about 5-10 hours a week. Best of luck! [/quote]
