[quote=Anonymous]I am considering applying for a job in which I'd work three 12 hour shifts/week. Every month the days and shift would change (sometimes including a weekend, sometimes being overnight). Kind of like nursing can be, but it's not nursing. I have a 4 month old and a 4 year old (and a DH who is very good at parenting/child care and cooking and works 9 a.m. to 6 or 7 p.m. and travels about once a month). Do you work this type of schedule (or have you)? I can see pros and cons. I would like to have 4 non-work days to spend with my kids and take care of the house, etc., but am afraid I'll be tired all the time, need to sleep during the day if I was working over night, have trouble getting childcare, etc. Please share how it worked for your family and how you arranged child care. Thanks![/quote]
