I have a fantastic nanny that I share with another family, but regretably the other family is moving at the end of August.
Our nanny looks after BOTH sets of kids Mon through Fri - approx 7:30-5:00
I have a 6 year old starting Grade 1 at Heritage Mountain Elementary (Port Moody) and a 4 year old.
This has been a fantastic arrangement with the two families as you get all the benefits of a nanny, but without the high individual costs and paperwork hassle. This is a live-out nanny who can work in Canada (so no need for paperwork and sponsoring, etc.)
