[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone have any insight into the Kipp DC schools? She's also off the waitlist at Kipp DC Shaw Campus (Kipp DC Lead Academy) and that's a straight bus ride from my place to the school, and the school is a 10 min drive from the hospital I'll be working at. They also have good before and aftercare options.

My daughter's mom also wants to take care of her for some time so she could go to her place out of state maybe for a week or two at a time when there are school breaks.[/quote]

You want a daycare type situation, no charter school.  KIPP is a particularly bad charter school, but there is not charter school that will be OK in this situation.  You keep coming back to this idea of nanny plus before care, plus after care, plus school, plus camp, plus sometimes your mom, plus sometimes your child's mom, plus maybe you pawn her off on some new friends you will make.  Little kids thrive on routine and consistent relationships, and you are proposing the opposite. Honestly, what you are proposing is pretty close to child abuse.  Is there any way you could leave her with someone who loves her and will put her first?  [/quote]
