[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We both work shift work.our friends stagger their schedules so one goes in late and the other one goes in early. 
One friend hired a sitter for 2 hours every morning. Paying for childcare is part of parenting if you both work. Maybe see if a friend with kid at same school is interested in watching your kid ( for pay) [/quote]

So they dont get hole until like 7pm?  Thats part of what is impacting us.

We looked for a sitter, they are flaked after a month. No one wants these hours unless you are paying 40 hrs because it means they cant work many other jobs easily.

We already pay $400 for aftercare.

And we would happily pay another $400 for before care if it wasn’t so depressing, but Im sure they suffer from same problem of hard to hire people for those hours.

It would be simpler to just start school earlier. Even 30 minutes would be amazing.

I dont need childcare; my kid stays home fine by themselves even all day. I just need school to not actively thwart my work schedule.

920am?? That seems intentionally disruptive to working parents. Thats awful![/quote]
