[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Man I just see so much of myself in the OP. While I wasn’t staying home (I needed before and aftercare) I remember also thinking a SAHM or college student would fit the bill. In hindsight I think that just reflected my ignorance about who applies for childcare work, and I was focused on the kinds of people I personally know/are in my own social circles. After a bunch of interviews and extended (and declined) offers, I figured out that I had it all wrong. In the end I got an au pair. [/quote] A high school or college student can work, maybe a SAHM but most SAHM are home for their kids not yours. There is an expectation they pitch in as they aren't working but its not their responsibility to care for your kids.[/quote] I mean obviously I wasn’t “expecting” them to pitch in, I was just hoping they would respond to my ad. But they didn’t. And college students didn’t work out either. [/quote]
