Hi! Would love some advice with a bit of a dillema that im having.
I start back at Uni next week, and my daughters childcare hasn't yet been able to change one of her days to the one I need for this semester. So she goes monday and wednesday. And I need Tuesday (my mum minds her the other days).
So I've been counting on the day coming up - didn't think it would be so hard to change, but suddenly Ive realised that Its probably not going to come up, especially not by next week.
So now Im not sure what to do.
Should I look around for another childcare?
I am fairly happy with her current one though. It could be better, but it took me 3 months to find a vacancy that I was happy with in the first place (Im pretty fussy). But she now goes on two days that Im actually at home. I sort of need one for study, but not really two.
Also I don't really want her to have an extra full day at cc, unless it was somewhere that I really loved.
And I have about zilch time to find somewhere if I do start looking. If I did find somewhere, she would have to be going an extra day to start with at least.
My plan at the moment is to ring up her current childcare on the tUesday morning and see if they have anyone away and my mum can drop her down. But if they don't I will have to come home and get her and take her to my afternoon tute.
Anyway, this probably makes no sense because Im really sleep deprived today crazy night! but hopefully It would help me decide what to do if anyone has any advice they could offer.
For some reason I just don't want to pick up the phone and start ringing places.
Im in Morningside, Brisbane by the way if anyone just happens to know of a great childcare centre I could ring.
