Hello there,
I am a Working Mum with two small children, we currently have to engage the services of an Au Pair to help with before and after pre school care. As nice as it is our perfect solution would be for an experienced "granny" to be there for those couple of hours in the morning and again in the afternoon to help with the pick up and giving the children dinner before we get home from work. However upon looking into this option it appears it isn't an option as no organisation other than one based in the USA actually offers this service.
So, my question to the Grandma's out there do you think this would be a viable business opportunity?, do you think there would be Mature Ladies, experienced in childcare, cooking and generally worldly wise that would be interested in picking up paid work during the week, or am I being unrealistic and going off on a crazy tangent?. I would really value the input/advice of some Grandma's out there if you don't mind spending a few minutes to let me know your thoughts. (We are based in New Zealand and our Parents in the UK, hence our first choice Grandma's aren't around to pitch in as they & we would love them to ( - thank you)
Good Morning Thursday 18th April 2024
