GC moms! Help!

Hi everyone!  I am new here but was hoping for some advice/ opinions .  My husband and I are about to close on a house in the estates section of GC.  I have two young girls 6 and 4 that would be attending the schools there- homestead then Stratford.  Problem is, I'm a school teacher and have to be at work by 8:10.  Neither school has an early drop off option nor would girls be able to get bused because we live too close to both schools. My husband also takes the lirr into the city and would leave for work early.  My question is, what is the likelihood of being able to find a neighbor/ babysitter that would be able to help us out I the morning ?  Is this something that anyone has gone through?  Is there a site or great place to learn more about my options?  Any advice would be greatly appreciated?  Thanks in advance!
