Easy to find if you are willing to pay top dollar or deal with constant turn over.

Leave your email, unless you're a troll.

Are all your kids in school yet? We meet tons of after school nannies, and ones who fill in for full days when needed. Have you even tried to find a 20-25 hour a week nanny in this area?


PP you quoted here

Sorry I didn't clarify, I'm not the OP, and I don't need an afterschool nanny. It's just something I've heard, a lot, so I was surprised that so many people here haven't had those issues. That is all

I did light housekeeping,laundry, ran errands and grocery shopped in addition to making dinner and managing the kids' schedules. I also drove them to all of their after school sports and activities and appointments for dentists, ortho,etc.

Sounds like a housekeeping gig.

Where is it easy to find someone dependable? And for how much?

You might need to offer $25. Find someone willing to teach your children how to do their own laundry.

We have had au pairs for years but our kids are getting older and really we need a driver and someone who can make dinner for them some nights and do some kids laundry. We've been having trouble getting a new au pair this year. Is it hard to find someone to work 2-7 each night? We would pay $20+ an hour.
