I was hoping to get some ideas as I might want to hire a ECE student for a 1-2month period. Mostly after the baby is born....so that I can keep up with the daily park/splash pad outings w/ picnics and not have the kids tapped at home all day.

Although my mom will be living next door she can only handle "so much"...she has said often she admires me LOL She will be able to help but she's also only 48yrs old and wants to continue working even if it's a PT so I can't fully count on her....nor expect her to.

Even a highschool student for a couple of hours a day? ((of course I would make sure they have CPR, and with the parents permissions etc.))

I *think* I'll be ok but I'd rather be perpared just in case......any ideas?
