If I decide to hire a part time nanny, what are the best hours of the day to have her work?

The Late Afternoon Part Time Nanny

After working a long day, the last thing you want to do is come home, make supper, clean up the dishes, clear the table, and sit down with your child to help him or her with hours of homework. It's tiring for families who work full time. Of course you want to help your kids! You want what's best for them, but the reality is you just can't do it all. That's one good reason to hire a part time nanny. Sometimes kids go to after-school programs where they complete their homework before the parents pick them up after work. There are some really good statistics to show why after school programs are such a positive experience for school aged kids (better grades, for example), but there are a lot of good reasons to hire a part time nanny to work in your home as well. For one thing, posting a part time nanny position allows you to bring someone into your home who cannot only help the kids with homework, but can also get supper started so that when you get home from work, you're day is truly done.

If your kids are in school all day, there's no need to have nanny child care in your home during those hours. Hire a part time nanny to show up for work about an hour before the kids come home from school. If they come home on the bus, the part time nanny can be there to greet them with a nutritious snack. If they need to be picked up from school, the nanny can do that as well! Now, instead of having to leave work everyday to pick up your kids from school, someone else can share that responsibility.
