Kimt news 3's madelyne watkins joins us live this morning to explain how crucial brooke and tyler.

Tutors here at college nannies, sitters and tutors has always been in high demand... but now with so much uncertainty surrounding this upcoming school year... parents are wanting to get ahead by getting all the help they can.

I sat down with the family placement manager, patrice nordstrom.

She tells me there was a dip in families wanting nannies or tutors in march and april... but now it's the opposite.

Nordstrom says whether the students will have in person class or do distance learning... their services will be the same.

They'll just adapt to what each family is looking for.

She tells me their staff will be trained and given the educational resources and tools to be able to successfully help the students.

"so kind of think of it as a homeschool family.

What do the parents need when they're starting to homeschool?

How do they balance, how do they balance the first grader who has to go online and do some modules when they have a three year old that they have to entertain as well?

So we're going to give the nannies some education, some tools and guidance and continual support."

College nannies, sitters and tutors is still needing about 20 more nannies and 4 more tutors by the end of august.

If you're interested in becoming either of those... we'll have more information on our website kimt dot com.

Madelyne thank you, madelyne.

Nordstrom says there are still a lot of questions... so they're trying to figure out the best course of action depending on what education will look like.

She's hoping
