School Age Care?

WITH any luck.. my husband might go back to work sometime this fall. Which is great.

BUT I will be left without a babysitter. I was using my nephew - but that option is just not good for us anymore.

With school holidays coming up I am going to need reliable care for holidays, vacations, etc.. Does anyone have any advise where I can go about finding this kind of 'part time' school age solution?

I don't know where you are located, but, the center I used to work for has a school age program for days like that.

If you'd like FM me for more info.

Have you tried the local Y, they usually have great break programs. Also my local nature center does great break programs and sometimes dance and gymanstics places have day long programs.

I have not used it but I saw this service advertised. May be worth looking into.

Beyond this my luck has been to consider neighbors high school kids or a stay at home mom in the area. Also, a number of places offer after care -- your school district may or a service like KinderCare.

Good luck! I always think this is the hardest thing to do when it's not family.
