Baller LoopSki Posted March 14, 2018 Baller Share Posted March 14, 2018 Last summer my wife had to take a leave of abscence to stay home and watch kids. Dont think they will be so understanding this summer . So I would like to find a live in .Thinking a Chico State , Sac State or UC Davis waterski team member may fit the bill. Someone who doesnt want to go home or pay rent during the Summer break .If anyone knows someone or can pass it on would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller RazorRoss3 Posted March 15, 2018 Baller Share Posted March 15, 2018 Ski every day doesn't sound like a bad gig, you may want to expand the offer to other regions if you don't get any bites. I have to imagine there is a collegiate skier somewhere who would jump on that in a heart beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Horton Posted March 15, 2018 Administrators Share Posted March 15, 2018 @LoopSki I have contacted the UCLA ski team a number of times offering to trade skiing for a little childcare. Monday through Friday I have a lake to myself and a 2018 ProStar. The response has mostly been crickets. One alumni skier has come out a few times and one current team member came out once. In both cases I spent more time in the boat pulling them then they spent watching my 3 1/2 year old. Both of these UCLA girls are extremely nice and are welcome back any time but my phone is not ringing. The best skiing for childcare trade I have made is with a local highschool girl who knows me and whose family knows me. I will be very sad when she goes off to college next year. She can even drive the boat. She has actually become more of a ski partner then a baby sitter. I think part of the problem is that the college kids don't know you and they really want to ski with their friends. For these college kids skiing is a social activity and trading skiing for nanny work is not a social thing.

Baller klindy Posted March 15, 2018 Baller Share Posted March 15, 2018 Make a deal with two (or more) of them - assuming there's room available. I'm not suggesting increasing your cost by 2x, I'm suggesting if they want to divide what you're offering by 2 then you might have room to accommodate two of them. Of course that introduces a whole different level of babysitting the babysitters but the right combination could work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Andre Posted March 15, 2018 Baller Share Posted March 15, 2018 Funny,I once made a deal with two college girls too... My ski finish in 16.95 but my ass is out of tolerance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Bdecker Posted March 19, 2018 Baller Share Posted March 19, 2018 We have done au pairs for a number of years with our kids. Definitely has it’s ups and downs, but overall it has been positive for us. So far we have one that waterskied (successfully...), none have been boat driving material yet. My wife tells me it is about half the cost of a nanny but typically it is a full year commitment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
