Two DC's in primary school. Looking to complete my course next year. Full on year of placements 9-5 Monday to Friday, could be anywhere in the SW! I have no idea how I'm going to do it.
Currently I work full time but can make up hours elsewhere to do school pick ups three days a week.
Dd is starting school this September and from experience I know that means weeks of half days or shorter!
I have family who help out but none who can do five pick ups and drop offs a week!
Thinking of nanny but that will be ver expensive. Au Pair? Scared it's asking a bit too much of a Spanish teenager to pick up and drop off everyday. Especially in the first term when I imagine all the parent mingling will go on.
Genuinely trying to improve things for my DC's but have no idea how I will manage this with my sanity in tact.
Their father is not helpful either. Offering one drop off and pick up a week.
