I teach online college classes and tutor- since most of my students are working adults, my after bedtime hours work out perfectly for all of us and I can spend my days with the boys. </p> <p>I WAH most nights and WOH one day a week on my husband's weekday off so he takes the boys. If I need an hour or two during the week to get things done, I use the YMCA so he can play with other kids. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-child-care-situation/page/2#post-1530324 Fri, 28 Mar 2014 15:54:28 +0000 mdf106 1530324@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lmog48 @shellio: My husband also SAH. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-child-care-situation/page/2#post-1523887 Wed, 26 Mar 2014 17:13:38 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1523887@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I selected two options because DD goes to daycare, but DS is being watched by my MIL.

I'm a full time student, and occasionally pick up shifts with the family I used to nanny for (1-4 times a month). When I work, LO comes with me. During the school week my mom watches her during one class and we hired a nanny friend who comes mornings twice a week. Other than that I stay home with her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-child-care-situation/page/2#post-1523669 Wed, 26 Mar 2014 16:02:53 +0000 Pumuckl 1523669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He is in a center ft now but before he was home with dad one day a week while I was in the office (I was working PT during parental leave). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-child-care-situation/page/2#post-1523657 Wed, 26 Mar 2014 15:59:41 +0000 Running Elley 1523657@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I work in the afternoons 3 days a week and my mom watches my LOs at her house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-child-care-situation/page/2#post-1523647 Wed, 26 Mar 2014 15:54:39 +0000 Caly 1523647@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shellio: Same here!

He can be here as long as I want him with the only rule being that once he becomes a distraction to everyone else, he's gotta go. So if coworkers have a 3 y/o banging on their door when they're on a phone call, that's probably not OK but until then, he's good and everyone loves having him here, he gets plennnnty of attention :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-child-care-situation#post-1523261 Wed, 26 Mar 2014 14:17:19 +0000 Dandelion 1523261@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Other...DS is in first grade, but I'll be a SAHM for LO. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-child-care-situation#post-1523260 Wed, 26 Mar 2014 14:17:04 +0000 MrsF 1523260@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I work PT (2 days / week).

DS goes to daycare.
