Mom looking to care for another infant

stellabillings | Oct 04, 2008 | 0 | Posted in Child Care

Hi, I'm staying home with my 2 month old son, Isaiah, for 4 months and am looking for another baby of about the same age to care for with mine during that time. Ideally, I'd like this to be for December-February, but temporary arrangements of 3-4 weeks are fine too. Maybe you're going to start daycare but want to wait until your baby's a bit older, or you're on a waiting list? I'd like to work with a family 2-3 days per week, at my place or yours. The pay is somewhat negotiable, but I'm thinking of around $15/hour. I'm a very respectful, loving, fun mom with lots of enthusiasm, fun, awareness and attachment. If you're interested, we can meet to see whether we're a fit. I'd also love any suggestions for places to inquire about this sort of arrangement. Thanks! -Stella

"Have you ever noticed that even today in the year 2008, virtually every children's book you pick up portrays the mom character doing domestic tasks, often wearing an actual apron?

We have spent a great deal of time working with public library personnel and other experts to compile a list of books for kids that feature moms who work outside the home.

For many of us, these uncommon books illustrate a far more realistic picture of family life than all the classics put together."
