Gosh thank you so much wysiwyg for all this detail. When DD1 turned 1 we were in a different city so I simply returned to work from maternity leave, in an extremely flexible format. We had a nanny. Then we moved interstate while on mat. Leave with DD2 so I had to resign. Keen on working again though hence this application. DD1 now at 3 year old kinder one day a week, is highly social so thinking daycare for her but hate the idea of daycare for DD2 at the moment. But that's a whole other kettle of fish!
