Grammar
Try to reduce minor grammatical errors and typos, for example: change 'doubt' to 'doubts', 'babysiters' to 'babysitters', 'houshold' to 'household', etc.
Grammar
To improve the logical structure, break long sentences into shorter ones, which helps in better understanding and avoid over-complexity, for instance, change 'some families choose to find employees who stay with their children' to 'some families choose to hire employees to look after their children'.
Supporting Examples
Aim to provide more specific examples to strengthen your arguments, such as detailed personal experiences or specific data/statistics.
Introduction
Work on improving your introduction to make it clearer and more engaging. Instead of starting with 'There is no doubt...', you might start with a more direct statement of your stance or an intriguing fact related to the topic.
Coherence and Cohesion
Your essay would benefit from better use of linking words and phrases. Adding variety in conjunctions and transition words will improve flow. Use words like 'therefore, however, consequently', etc. more effectively.
Task Achievement
The essay addresses the task fully by discussing both the psychological and financial benefits of parents hiring help to look after their children.
Conclusion
The conclusion effectively summarizes the main argument and ties back to the points discussed in the essay.
Elaboration of Ideas
The essay shows an ability to elaborate on ideas, providing multiple reasons for the stated opinion.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
