I have to work this summer when my kids are out of school. Should I hire a summer nanny?

Schools Out, But You're Not!

Everybody enjoys summer vacation, especially the kids who are tired of homework and endless days in class. Now instead of dreaming of being at the beach or the park, they can actually go. Wait a minute! How are they going to get there if you're working full time? Just because the kids are out of school for the summer doesn't mean you are. This is when a summer nanny comes in handy. A summer nanny can really take a load off of your shoulders by being in the home to watch over the kids. Sure there's always the possibility of settling the kids into a summer daycare program, but some kids prefer (and thrive) in their own environment where they can play with their friends and take advantage of activities in their own backyard.

Another advantage to hiring a summer nanny is having control over what your kids do for the summer months. You can leave them with the nanny to supervise informal activities each day, or you can arrange for day trips to museums, music camps, cultural events, etc.

Once you've decided to hire summer child care, meet with the nanny to brainstorm summer activity ideas.
