Money saving transportation tips
With summer coming to an end and preschool just around the corner, it is time to start preparing for the upcoming school year. Whether it be the high gas prices, lack of an spare automobile, or other reason, families in which the parent(s) work will need to develop a solution for their nannies for transporting their children. Nowadays, children’s schedules are almost as busy as us parents’: preschool, dance class, piano lessons, soccer practice, art tutors, amongst other things. For the parent’s who have more than one child, as do we, it is ironic how our children’s schedules are never in-sync. One has to be one place, then 15 minutes later the other needs to be completely across town, then there’s pickup and on to the next place….
Some parents can afford a spare car for their nannies, though most cannot, let alone cover the car insurance. Times are tough, the economy is hurting, and now is the time to save money whenever possible. Here at BestNanny.com, this is where we feel that we can be of some assistance. Not too long ago, we noticed that a nanny of one of the family’s of a daughter in our son’s class had a different car every single week. This seemed odd to us, and quite curious. My first thought was that the husband was a car salesman, but after seeing the different car brands, I knew that was not the case. I soon came to find out that they had been renting cars on a weekly basis for their nanny to help cut costs through Budget Rent-A-Car. This thought had never crossed my mind. After seeing it on paper, the math spoke for itself. On top of this, the family was saving using rental car coupons they found online.
It is not too late to look into renting cars and Budget has several locations in and around your neighborhoods.
