Busy Back-to-School Schedule? We Have You Covered

MILLBURN, N.J. - Sept. 9, 2026 - PRLog -- Weeks into the new school year, fall sports, extracurriculars, and back-to-school nights are already colliding on family calendars. A 2026 survey of 2,000 U.S. parents covered by cleveland.com found families now spend an average of 38 minutes a school day driving kids to school and activities — nearly 115 hours, or 15 full workdays, a year — and 77% say the season makes life more hectic and unpredictable.* Oliver's Nannies, a leading nanny agency trusted by families nationwide, offers services built to help them navigate it.

"Fall doesn't ease families in gradually — practices, recitals, and school events tend to land in the same week," said Kathy Livingston, Founder and President of Oliver's Nannies. "Our services are built so a full calendar doesn't mean a missed moment, whether that's a nanny getting a child to practice on time or a parent attending back-to-school night without worrying about coverage at home."

Families with a consistent weekly need — a daily after-school gap, a recurring evening practice — can rely on regularly scheduled Nanny Services. Those whose needs fluctuate week to week can turn to FlexCare for on-demand coverage around a big game, school event, or an especially packed week. Either way, caregivers arrive ready for fall's choreography: dinner between practices, homework on track, and tomorrow's cleats, script, or violin laid out the night before.

"We found Oliver's Nannies and it's one of the best decisions we could have made. The nannies are always punctual, professional, and my kids love them. They always help me in a crunch. We definitely recommend them." -Latisha F., client and mom

Families don't need to wait for a conflict to arise. Oliver's Nannies encourages parents to review their fall calendars now and put a childcare plan in place before the season's practices, games, and events start overlapping.

Oliver's Nannies is a premier nanny agency that has been serving out of their Millburn, NJ office since 2018 and has since expanded to 20 locations across the United States. Olico®, Oliver's Nannies, and its logos are registered trademarks of Oliver's Nannies Franchising, Inc.
