In fact I'd like to hire a Nanny to come each day for a total of 4 hours or so 5 days a week. This way I can get a full 8 hour work day in and not compromise our lives financially. Babysitters are great for watching kids but that is all they bring to the table, or at least the one's we hire. I want a nanny or sitter that will make the kids a sandwich if need be, do a bit of laundry, tidy up the downstairs, do some dishes, and be a special part of our family. I want my wife to not have to get up at 5am if she wants to work out, and she'll be in the morning when the kids get up so we can have breakfast and coffee together and as a family. I prefer that I come home and we take off together to run, cycle, work out, or even just go get coffee or dinner. I don't care what it costs, we'll cut other areas of our budget or I'll just work harder to bring in more business.
