Pregnant daycare Mom

[playfelt]

For my last three moms that were pregnant, they all left their older child with me 3-5 days but paid for the full space. They each received a top up amount through work on top of their regular mat leave benefits so financially they were able to do it. I know that isn't true for most people.

Same thing here. Mom got topped up through work so financially they were able to do it. She does keep her child home two days a week and then the odd day here and there.

This is what I did when I went on mat leave for our second. We didn't want to lose our provider and she had a spot for our second when I went back to work but, I didn't get topped up and it killed us (but worth it)
Not everyone can do this...we shouldn't have but it was important to us so I gave us a few things in order to swing it. Not everyone thinks like this and I don't blame them either.
