[quote=Anonymous]I think you should be upfront about the situation, and come with some proposed solutions (different childcare when the contract ends, IDing 1 or 2 days per week where DC is picked up by DH or a babysitter so you can be available, coming in earlier/skipping lunch/logging on in the evening - whatever you're comfortable with). But don't accept the narrative that you're not a go getter because you can't work between 5 and 8 pm and don't set the precedent that you are always going to put work first and kid second or that is what will be expected of you. Also, talk to the daycare administrator - maybe there is a teacher there who is looking for some additional work and can take your DC "after hours" for a little while. Or maybe there's a waiting list and they don't really care about the contract. Congrats on the new job![/quote]
