Summer break

[VictoriaChildCare]

Mrs. Ahmed for me, I take the same weeks off as my husband has off. He is able to choose his holidays by February so we choose our time off then and I let my parents know in writing.
You have to remember that part of the reason you chose this career path is because it was convenient to you. I chose to stay home with my daughter, it was only supposed to be for a little while but I love it so much I am still doing it 10 years later. You can not be a slave to your work. You are the boss, you make the rules. Take as much or as little time as you like.
I always take 2 weeks in the summer and the week between Christmas and New Year's Day. All of it unpaid - if I'm not open, my parents don't pay. Hope this helps
