[quote=Anonymous]We were two WOH parents and my schedule was a bit flexible. I dropped DD off at daycare at 6:30am, in the office by 7am. Then leave the office at 3:30pm getting DD and home by 4pm. Unfortunately for us this wasn't going to work longterm. Our odds of getting before-care is nil (18-24month wait list at our school) and DH has to leave the house by 7am (doesn't get home before 5:30/6pm). All family is out of state, so our solution was me finding a new job, which I did. Our HHI was $200k, but with the new job it's $250k and I WFH 100%. It was incredibly lucky of me that there was a job opening when I was looking. Now I'll have the flexibility to get her ready in the morning, on the bus, off the bus, and cook dinner. I know this solution isn't possible for most, in our circle it's uncommon to have local family. Unfortunately our friends from daycare don't live in our neighborhood or we'd band together for a workable solution![/quote]
