DS is almost 6mo and I'm having to think about my return to work in the new year and childcare arrangements.
As it stands my DM will be able to look after him two days a week, so we're looking at 2 possibly 3 days that DS needs to attend a nursery so I can go back to work full time.
This is all completely new to me. How would I go about seeking out a decent nursery? Is it just a case of digging out the yellow pages and ringing round?
Do many nurseries accept children a couple of days a week, or do they need to be full time?
DH gets a random day off through the week so there may be a need to change one nursery day as and when DH is told his day off - is this usually acceptable?
Are the costs pretty much the same across the board or do they vary dramatically (I've noticed on a couple of nursery websites that I've looked at, none of them advertise their fees).
All of this is pretty depressing :( I just want to sit with him on my knee forever!
