[blparent] Babysitting

 Thank you all for the input!

 The schools I've checked into Dont offer a before and after school
programs,  nor do they have any refferals,  day cares don't open till 6 or
7, and agencies are just to expensive at the moment.

I definitely will check into nearby colleges! That's a great idea!
