[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OMG, I learned during the first four months of the pandemic (trying to WAH FT with no child care) how important good child care is to letting me be the kind of mom I want to be. I am a MUCH better mother when my kid and I get to do our own things during the weekdays. (I also work a .8 FTE so that I can end my day at 3:00). [/quote] NP with almost the exact same situation. I do send my DD to aftercare one day a week and she is asking for more- there are certain friends who go every day and can’t do play dates so that is how she sees them. I will say I think 2-4 is the hardest age for child care. Both kids LOVED their infant and toddler daycare rooms and I was lucky their day wasn’t crazy long. But at preschool age, especially when there start to be more rules and expectations they just want to be home sometimes, especially when they drop their naps and get tired. That was when I really had to remind myself this is a long game…[/quote]
