[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have been a SAHM for the past few years in another city.  We are moving back to D.C. within the next 1-2 years and I would like to go back to work.  When I lived in D.C. I had a decent career track in an International field for 7 years.  I have been out of that field for 9 years (did other things before having kids) and would like to get back into it when we move back...but not in exactly what I was doing.

I have no problem starting in an entry level job with the government or a non-profit in a job related to International Affairs.  However...my big BUT is that I really need it to be family friendly.  I don't need to work from home, per se, but [b]I would love a flexible schedule where I can work 7-3 a couple of days a week (or more) so I can pick up my kids after school and not do aftercare 5 days a week[/b].

Is this possible?  Does this exist?  Do I even have a chance?  Am I kidding myself?  I miss working and using that part of my brain but I also want to have at least a couple of afternoons with my kids during the week.  My DH works a fairly demanding job (he will be in the same job in D.C.) and is the breadwinner (obviously) so he will not have a lot of flexibility.[/quote]

This is what almost everyone wants.[/quote]
