Hi all, my DD is 5 in the summer and finishing first year of school. We live kind of rural and so summer childcare is limited. My partner and I work full time and will take off 3 weeks between us but need another 3 covered.
A few other parents at my partner's work are in the same position and so his work said perhaps they could offer up a space to effectively run a nursery/childcare for the summer if we could find a childminder/childcare person. There would probably be up to 5/6 kids?
Does anyone know where to start with this kind of this? I'm trying to Google it and it just talks lots about permanent workplace nurseries which is not what we're after.
Ideally we would find a nanny/childcare person for six weeks who could run a small activity "camp" for the summer but is this possible? And what kind of hoops are we needing to jump through?
Any help appreciated!
Please no comments about dropping down hours, going part time, etc. This is just not possible at the moment for various reasons and we already do WFH certain days and have a good balance the rest of the year with childcare/pick ups etc. and both of us have generous a/l.
