The Best Kept Secret in RTP for Dual Income Families

These days, dual income families are busier than ever. Focusing on raising a family as well as successfully managing a career creates time-management challenges that even the most organized person can find overwhelming. From the rush to get out the door in the morning, to the rush to pick kids up from daycare after work, it can feel like you never have a ‘down’ moment in the day. Add into the mix sick kids or extra-curricular activities and you may find your nerves are stretched to the breaking point.At My Girl Friday, the best kept secret in RTP for busy families, we understand the stressors that dual income families have on a daily basis. We know that you’ve worked extremely hard to get to where you are in life, and we realize how important your family is to you. We know what it means to not want to compromise a career or quality of childcare. What we offer is really the best of both worlds!Consider what it might be like getting up later in the morning and taking your time getting ready without having to rush to drop your children off at preschool or daycare. Maybe you fix everyone your special waffles, or even have time to sit with your kids and read a book or two. Coming home in the evening, you have those precious moments to decompress after the day because your children are already home, waiting to hear your car pull in the driveway.

A Practical Luxury

A nanny, perhaps at first glance considered an extravagance, is one of the most practical luxuries you can treat yourselves to. As most of us will agree, there is truth to the saying “My time is money.” When you consider the stress that is relieved each day by having a nanny on hand to help, what you are witnessing is the emotional benefit of return on investment. You aren’t simply paying someone to watch your kids, you are investing in a better quality of life for your family.A nanny understands the dynamics of your family, she or he represents your parenting philosophies and, most importantly, they develop a nurturing, loving relationship with your kids. This bonding is a wonder to behold, and creates an atmosphere of safety, consistency and comfort for children unrivaled by other care choices. This relationship does more that provide security, it also adds dimension to your kids’ lives by allowing them to spend time with someone who has wonderful things to teach and share with them.Besides the benefit to your children’s growth and development, a nanny helps to shoulder the responsibilities that come with a career and a family. They can help pack lunches, get laundry out of the [bottomless!] baskets and into the dressers, prep for dinner and shuttle kids to and from activities.
