Babysitting

From Cynthia:

Are any of the adults in the neighborhood available to babysit our 1-year-old on occasion either at their house or ours? Our daycare is closed every last Friday of the month so we are looking for someone who would be available from approximately 8:30-3:30 on occasion. Please let us know if anyone knows someone that babysits on occasion or runs a daycare in the Grand Firs area so we can talk further. Thanks.

We are having the same problem. I am glad to hear that this is hard for you as well. Have you talked to them and let them know this is a hardship? I was just wondering if I was the only person that this was a problem for or if all the parents just accepted it.

The snow day closure was a problem for me too. My job doesn't stop because it snows. In fact, I would think that with school closures this would be a time that more parents would be in need of a full day of daycare.

Frustrating.

Michelle,

You better believe I told them it was a hardship. I also told them that it was possible i would have to find another daycare if it continued for more than a year or so. The closed or delayed snow days are lso a problem for us.

Thanks for the info Brittani and Tammy. I will give you both a call to find out more info.
