Babysitter or no?
I’m about to work from 9-5 every day but my kids end school at 3:00, should I work part time or hire a babysitter? My kids don’t have after school programs at their school and I heard babysitters can be expensive. What should I do?

Hi I am interest I worked for DOE years I had care for kids for many years my jobs were to pick up the kids from school cooked light cleaning and bath

Hi, Jean! I am a babysitter for many working moms. If you live close to your kids’ school and they can walk home or can take the bus, you can find less expensive babysitters because they won’t have to do any driving! (a lot of babysitters that also drive kids charge more) Maybe hire someone a bit younger, or someone that can be at the house by the time your kids get home, and the rate can be 8-10 dollars an hour. If that’s too difficult for you, maybe try altering your hours with your boss so that you can make it work. Good luck with everything!
There are usually after school programs outside of school that offer transportation
