[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you and/or your spouse can telework, how do you handle sick days or snow days? Do you take the day off or work from home? And if you work from home, what are your strategies for keeping child(ren) occupied? Unlimited screen time? I know that the federal gov't says you have to have child care when you're working from home (I'm not a Fed), but do people actually do that for sick days/snow days, or do you "work from home" while also keeping half an eye on a kid who is occupied with a craft/screen/whatever?[/quote] My daycare follows Arlington school closures, so I found a middle school student a couple blocks away to be a mother's helper and play with my toddler/preschooler while I work from home. Best thing ever--she is super into playing with them, and I can actually send some emails. I still only get a few hours of work done with this arrangement, but it's better than nothing![/quote]
