My little boy's best friend's mom has offered to take my son after school and school out days (they go to the same charter school) as long as they are not on vacation (which they do about 3 times a year)
For free.
Her son is incredibly well behaved and her and her husband are amazing parents. We love them.
He currently goes to a daycare center (a new one, for those who follow me and thought my last one was totally crappy) and I have been SO HAPPY with his new center. My plan for next year was to just have him in the after school program for 2 hours a day, plus off days, short days, summer, etc. -- It's around $450/mo, and I love the consistency that a center provides and the fact that I rarely need back up care. Right now, this mom who is offering to take my son, IS MY ONLY back up care! So it would put me in a pickle.
I'm trying to weigh the pros and cons and hoping for some insight from you fine people!
