[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP, 
Yes, its tough managing all this. We have a couple kids with different needs/therapies and it seems our lives are always about logistics.

a couple thoughts:
1) DEFINITELY find out if Child Find therapists can come to daycare. Many do and that would take care at least of some of the therapies, maybe all.

2) therapies don't have to be scheduled in the middle of the weekday. We take my dd to ST at 6:15 twice a week--I leave work a little early, but work most of a day.

3) Use flexibility as much as possible--work from home, etc, to work in the hours.

4) how much therapy does she need? 1x/week for each? You can probably find an OT and maybe PT on the weekends. You can certainly find ST who come to the house or daycare, even if not child find.

5) if you don't want to do the nanny route, you might find a college or grad student willing to pick up your daughter and take her to therapy a couple days a week as an alternative.

6) Breathe. It's hard to take in at once, and a little overwhelming, but you will make it work with some planning. [/quote]
