Hi fellow mamas

I usually don't post much but I am just tired of this daycare business.

My situation is a a different kind of situation and I was wondering if ANYONE out there was in the same boat as me and if so, what did you do?!

I work shift work in emergency services...which means sometimes I work 7-4, 3-11PM and overnights!

Thankfully my husband works 9-5 so that usually keeps daycare hours manageable. HOWEVER I tend to get called into work short notice or shifts get changed around leaving me high and dry for daycare!

I also work every weekend. (husband is home with daughter). and only a few days a week.. and they can be ANY days of the week... not the most desirable schedule for a daycare provider...

My daughter is currently in a daycare program (which was hard enough to find) that requires her schedule to be submitted a month in advance and anything outside of what I schedule for the month is just luck if they have space open when I call.

I have no family close by or friends that can help out during week days.

Im starting to get nervous that it could be putting my job in jeopardy.

Advice from any fellow shift workers????????
