[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH drops off DS5 in the morning at daycare, and nanny comes to our home to take care of DD2. DS5 is going to elementary school this fall, and DD2 is going to daycare this fall. Nanny will not work for us anymore this fall.

Is it possible for DH to drop off DS5 & DD2 in the morning? DS5's school is 5 mins driving from our home & he will attend before care, and DD2's school is 15 mins driving from our home. They are on the same direction. How does it work for DH drops off 2 kids? He needs to walk 2 kids out at the first dropoff, and I wonder how difficult is that? Both kids are attached/clingy to me, so it will be more emotionally challenged for them to say goodbye to me. It is a lot easier for them to say goodbye to DH. Anyways, should I drop off 1 kid, and DH drop off 1 kid instead?

I will be responsible to pick up 2 kids at pickup, and I know I am capable to do that. [/quote]

People will probably freak out on me, but unless the walk into the building for before care is really long, you can hustle the 5 year old in the building quickly and leave the 2 year old in the car for the 60 seconds or less it will take. Or once your kid knows the way to before care, he can walk into the classroom on his own.

I really think this depends on the set up of the school and parking lot.

When I had daycare drop off, I did walk older child in for 30 seconds. The daycare had its own parking lot and the car was only a few feet from the front door.

I did not use SACC at our school but the SACC area was inside the school. It would take at least 5 min and parking wasn’t right in front. I would lose visual of my car. I could not leave a young child in car.

I would leave 5yo in car for a minute to drop off 2yo but not the other way around.[/quote]
