SUMMARY: Finding ways to entertain kids during summer break while managing housework and jobs is challenging. Shan Lacy, Care.com’s General Manager of Child Care, offers strategies for hiring a summer babysitter or nanny. Despite summer being underway, it’s not too late to find the right childcare help through local networks, job boards, or online marketplaces like Care.com. Understanding the difference between a nanny (full-time, structured schedule) and a babysitter (part-time, as-needed) is crucial. Safety is prioritized with Care’s background checks and recommendations for further vetting. Typical rates in Houston are $17/hour for sitters and $19/hour for nannies. Flexibility in scheduling, even for part-time needs, is possible through careful search and clear communication of expectations.
