I'm going back 5 days a fortnight in May and my DH is a shift worker also so he will be looking after DS some mornings, but the centre we are looking into only has a full day rate and you can't do part days.

I guess it can't hurt for you to ask your centre in the morning.

Sorry I couldn't be more use.

ETA: I should say you can do part days but you have to pay the full day rate IYKWIM
