I am about to have my 3rd baby. My other two children are 2 and 4. A friend told me that it is possible to get a childcare student during the summer holidays to do work experience. Has anyone ever done this? Is it easy to arrange? I would not leave her on her own but would appreciate another pair of hands! Any experiences please share!!

I had a student on placement with me when my triplets were babies. She'd do their laundry, as well as learning to make bottles, sterilise and all other aspects of babies. Call your local college and ask to speak to the course leader. :)
