I work part-time 3 1/2 days a week (1/2 being a sat am) I currently work Mon/Wed/Fri and my 2 DS go to a CM on the Mon & Fri with my mum kindly having them on a Wed. However she is now having to step down her nanny/babysitting role due to it being too much really.
I find it a real struggle on the days the kids go to the CM to get everyone up ready and out the door by 7.50am and the the thought of this being the case 3 days a week is a scary one.
I keep on thinking that if I changed my days to tues/wed/thurs then it would be a frantic mid-week chunk but all done and dusted - plus the kids would the have 4 full days with me or DH - rather than every other day now.
It really didn't bother me when mum had them on a wed as they could still be in PJ's and were with family, but it seems harder now.
Any advice? Either thoughts on which days work best or how to make life less stressful?
I already do as much as I can the night before but it's more the logistics in the morning ie getting a 3yo & 1 yo to eat/get dressed in any level of urgency.
