Need a break from the kids??
I have been driving by this place by our local grocery store for quite some time and finally decided to stop in and see what it was all about. From the outside it looked like just a fun play place for kids, maybe a day care of some kind. It turned out to be the most amazing, GENIUS idea I wish I had thought of myself! HOURLY CHILD CARE. Hourly child care! Such a simple idea, but I've never ever seen or heard of one before. It's really easy too. There's a one-time registration fee and then an hourly wage (which turned out to be way cheaper than 99% of babysitters). They serve lunch there, change diapers, the whole nine yards. It was the perfect solution for me: a mom who doesn't have a nanny or even a steady babysitter (other than my parents) and most of the time just needs someone to watch my daughter last minute for only a few hours. And normally on week days when most people are unavailable. This place is PERFECT for me. Now the only test was seeing if my 2 year old daughter approved. She LOVED IT! I only left her there for 3 hours while I had an appointment, and when I came to pick her up she was in a group of about 5 little girls all dancing to Beyonce's "Single Ladies." Hilarious. She literally cried because she didn't want to leave. If you can find one of these in your area - you must give it a try! If you're in the Katy area I went to Itty Bitty City off of Westheimer Road. Get that much needed break without all the hassle of scheduling a sitter! Thanks Itty Bitty City! Have a blessed day! *Ally
