[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does your work know if your “plan?”  That would be completely unacceptable at my workplace. All remote employees must have proof of childcare.

You need a babysitter. It’s not fair to your employer, your husband or your DC.

This is really pretty blatant. [/quote]

Op. My job pays very little. They do not have a child care policy. [/quote]

NP.  They will once they hear your kid screaming in the background and you constantly distracted.  What you are proposing isn't feasible unless you have a "teleplay" type job, but that doesn't sound like your situation at all.[/quote]

Op. The thing is, I don't know my work schedule yet. I have training taken care of because my SAHM friend is going to help me. My training is for 6 weeks. My work hours after training could be anywhere from 15-35 hours per week starting off. I don't want to jump into daycare yet until I know more about my needs. I do not want my son watching 5 hours of TV. We actually recently started screen time and he's really into it. 1-2 hours per day would be the max I am comfortable with. I think the only way for this to work is for my SAHM friend to do childcare. She lives 5 minutes away and she has a toddler as well. I really want to compensate her in some way but she's not open to it. Maybe I can pay her in Starbucks gift cards or something like this to show my appreciation.
