Any of you ballers hire people to help around the house and with the kids? What's been your experience with that if so?
I'm about to have a basketball team of kids, and though my wife stays home with them, I was thinking of hiring a part-time nanny to come in and watch the kids for a couple of hours, wash clothes, etc once or twice a week.
Is a "part-time nanny" even a thing?
Do regular house cleaners wash clothes?

I have 4 kids and do everything myself just fine. Tell your wife not to be lazy.

We always had one lady watching us and another one doing chores like dishes, mopping, clothes, etc. Single-parent household though
Eta: The lady who did the chores came every day around 6pm, right before my mom got home. The nanny was there from when we got off of school until an hour after my mom got back

Be careful. When I was almost 12 my grandmother hired this woman to be our live in maid. I think folks here remember me discussing what came next.

We have a nanny that comes to the house from 10-4, 4 days a week
We pay her $600/month
She mostly just watches out daughter, but she also does our laundry and cleans on occasion when she gets bored.

Find a mother's day out program. Most run from 8-2 or 9-2 so she can drop them off a couple times a week and get stuff done.
or
Find a college girl who wants to make some money working an afternoon or 2 a week. My wife, while in college, would help out a family in the afternoons. Makes things run more smoothly when trying to cook dinner, bath kids, help with homework, and put them to bed.
