LO is starting day care early next year and will be going 3 days a week. Where I live it is fairly common to do part time day care. You are only charged for the days you need. I guess it is kind of like a puzzle getting everyone and their day requirements to fit. I was lucky in that I had some flexibility in the actual days I needed. I put our name down half way through my pregnancy as waiting lists can be looooong!

@bluestriped bee: I have been looking into this and am surprised at the amount of daycares that DO part time care. One of my friends told me, before I got pregnant, that daycares in our area don't do part time. Obviously she did not do her research. I have gone to four daycares so far to look into them and all four do part time! I am going to be talking to my boss at some point about 1 year of part time work. I'm happy we have so many options around for part time daycare. Just give a couple a call and I bet you'll find there are quite a few that do PT!

All the daycares that I called had options for part time, I'm suprised that some daycares dont allow this.
