What should I pay for...

[Trace of Angels]

I have a mom that works for me three mornings a week. She is amazing. It allows me to take three children out for a fieldtrip and to a weekly playgroup while she watches the other two and completes our regular routine with them while we are out.
It is someone that I know and trust.......I never thought about liability issues though. I have Daycare insurance and now I will be making a call to them to make sure I am covered to do this as well. I pay her $12/ hour for three hours three days a week (so nine hours a week in total)

Cfred, I sell my dayhome by stating no closures, besides stats and Christmas to New Years. So it being on the contract I'm really obligated at this point. My previous assistant has unfortunately gone onto other endeavors so I'm pretty much backed into a corner.
I was looking for advice on which people to target who have extra time on their hands and what I should offer to make it worth their while.
Angels, I like the idea of another mom who doesn't need a lot of hours. It gives me a little hope
