Today we got the letter telling us that Adam has a place in the local playgroup. This is a fully funded place, 15 hours a week, 3 hours a day, 5 days a week.
Which is fantastic. Except they have no before or after care.
And because his daycare is still waffling about whether or not they will have funded places in the fall.
I’ve told them I need to know in 2 weeks, as that is the deadline for us letting the local playgroup know if we accept the offered place.
It would be good if he went to the playgroup as that gives me, more or less, unofficially, a guaranteed place in their primary school.
But then how do I work? How do I run my company in what would amount to about 2 hours a day, if you include commute time to get Adam to the playgroup?
His current daycare might do pick up from that playgroup. I don’t know yet.
If they don’t, we’ll have to move him somewhere closer for after school care.
It’s all very uncertain. And I hate uncertain.
But I’m also very excited that my son is starting his formal education process.
Even if I do have to put him in a uniform…
