[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would stay at the current job. Don't think of it as a "mom job", ugh. I adore my job but would kill for that level of flexibility.[/quote]

That's the thing, my job is decent but i don't adore it, I'm thinking about jumping for a job I might be more excited about. I'm worried it wouldn't be worth the cost, but also worried that 5 years from now I'll feel like worrying about school pickup was a dumb and fleeting reason. [/quote]

You are going to be worried about school pick up until they are probably juniors in HS, that's not fleeting.  It doesn't end with daycare and kindergarten. The daycare years or Nanny years are actually the easiest in regards to schedules.  I'm in middle school hell when they have games that end at 3:30 on a weekday and endless ortho/derm appts. in the middle of the day. It doesn't get less complex as they get older. [/quote]

For me, daycare pickup was still the most difficult by far.

You have to get there by 6 just like SACC and it opens early, it’s year round, and your kids are too young for lost activities in evening and have no homework? Maybe your kids had colic. [/quote]
