[QUOTE="ksm, post: 752765, member: 12511"] I didn't respond earlier, but I would suggest that you let each of the parents pay someone else for one day a week, each. Maybe let them know you need some free time, and you can do Mon, Wed, Friday. When she's about two, she might benefit from early preschool to socialize with other kids. Most parents would be very appreciative of even three days a week of free child care. Some people will take advantage of your generosity. I have a friend that drives 50 miles to babysit her two young grands once a week, she spends the night, so the parents can shop, run errands, have dinner out. And then babysits the next day, then comes home. I think it's wonderful she is able to do this. But she has a healthy relationship with her daughter and son in law. And at the time she did this, her own husband was working out of town and only home on weekends, so it worked out good. Ksm [/QUOTE]
