[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is one of the reasons I decided to stay home. My husband is a surgeon so not only does he make considerably more money than me, he has an extremely inflexible schedule. Sure he can take off with notice, but he is extremely unlikely to cancel an entire day worth of office visits or cases for a sick kid, or snow day, etc. While my company was very family friendly, ultimately my career (and sanity!) paid the price as I was always trying to keep up. I should say I didn't quit until our 2nd was a year old and first started Kindergaten. Between sick days and days off through the public school year it was too much for me alone to do while maintaining my position. Kudos to those who can stay above water in this type of situation, I just wasn't cut out for it. [/quote] Your nanny was unreliable?[/quote]
