I am RP of DD (11). Her Dad (my Ex H) takes her out on a Thursday night and has her most weekends.
Over the last few months, I have started studying part time. On my uni day, he picks DD up from school and looks after her into the evening. I also have a morning on placement where I need to leave the house at 6.30 in the morning, so Ex H has DD the night before so he can get her to school that day.
He has now announced that he has applied for a job a distance away and would not be able to help me out with DD on those occasions if he gets it. I am really worried about my placement and how I will be able to leave early for it. Is there any kind of childcare where someone would have her from 6.30 in the morning? (aside from the fact that she is not a morning person and getting her up in time for school is generally a challenge).
Any advice? She really isn't ready to be left for long periods on her own. Also, I wouldn't be happy letting her be responsible for getting herself to school at the moment as she finds it hard to organise herself (something we're working on, but she needs support atm) and I just don't think it's fair on her. Thanks for your help
