The background is my girlfriend and I are planning to have a child in a few years and we're trying to lay the groundwork now. I do a 9-5 office job and she is a nanny doing long hours. Once we have a child she won't be able to work as a nanny due to the hours, what kind of work do people do when they need to either look after a child in the day or pick them up from daycare in the afternoon?
How do people deal with having a newborn, then a toddler and make it work around their jobs? We earn alright when put together but relying on a single salary would hurt.
