[quote=Anonymous]I've been a fed for almost 10 years and had little kids pre-Covid. In my agency, telework was almost unheard of at the time, so it was not an option for me. My agency did offer a backup care service, though, so I would use that pretty often. We usually had a nanny come to the house and the nannies were mostly OK (some better than others, but no horror stories). Otherwise, if my kids were too sick to be with a babysitter, my husband and I would take turns using sick days. And on rare occasions, I would beg my mom for help (rare not because she isn't helpful, but because she lived over an hour away at the time). I remember stressing out about getting "the call" a lot, but we made it through...[/quote]
