yeah, work out my a$$ January 31, 2007

I am going into panic mode here. Someone talk me down from the ledge!

It is 8 months until my baby (ie, Soleil) goes to Kindergarten. I want a nanny to pick up Luna from daycare and then get Soleil from the buss stop and finally they go home and snack and play until we get home.

Great. Sounds wonderful on paper.

How do I hire a Nanny? I look at the services and I nearly fall over. $2000-$2500 for placement fees. Oh My G-d!
That would be like a 50" plasma HD flat TV!  Hmm, ensuring my children’s safety? Or a kick as$ TV? Fortunately, we don’t have the space for a 50"  plasma HD flat TV. Yet. But I digress.

The point is, I don’t know how to hire a nanny. This is frustrating. I want a person that I can trust and work with. Really. I want someone that can take care of the girls in a loving manner. I want the girls to be in OUR house after school.

Why is this so hard? Why am I panicking?

I think my eyeballs will fall out from the stress of this. Jay, on the other hand, isn’t worrying about this at all.
"it will work out"

AHHHHHHH!
