[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I do both dropoff and pickup.  Our schedules is 5 days a week:

9:00 drop off kids and go to work (work is nextdoor to my daycare)
6:00 leave work and pick up kids

It can get wearying, I can tell you.  But I really never have done anything different so I don't have anything to compare it to, so I just do it, ya know?  It is a cumultative wearying experience, so, by the end of the week, I'm pretty much spent, but, like I said, this is just what we've always done so I am used to it.

I will say this much:  the time in car has been good for DC and me.  I feel a lot closer to them than DH does and I really do think it has been good quality time for us.

Good luck.

PS  From what I can tell, looking around at the other families at daycare, most other families have one parent doing both dropoff and pickup as well.  I think that's b/c usually one parent works significantly closer than the other one.  For example, my DH works downtown and ourdaycare (and my office) are both in Tysons.  But we chose it that way on purpose, so, maybe diff. strokes for diff. folks.  [/quote][/quote]
