LO may be going to a preschool program four days per week (full days with aftercare). What are my options for one day per week care? We have no family local. His daycare does drop in days, but they are limited to certain # per calendar year and subject to availability, which isn't known until the day before/day of, from what I understand. The other monkey wrench in all this is that the preschool follows a school calendar, so a two week winter break, a week spring break, 3 month (approx) summer break, etc.

The other option I can think of is a baby-sitter/nanny and re-enrolling for summers.

Has anyone else been in a similar situation? What other options should I consider?
