Parents - what do you do for emergency back-up care, particularly if child is sick? We have Bright Horizons emergency care but I understand it’s not reliable so was curious if there are other local agencies that have worked for this…

I have only heard good things about Bright Horizo

But emergency day care isn’t for a sick kid…especially since every daycare in America has a policy of kids staying home if they’re sick

Yup was talking about the in-home emergency care benefit with BH. (I have not yet used it myself but have heard from colleagues it has only been reliable when booked at least 1-2 weeks in advance.)

We interview part timers on a rolling basis and have 5 on speed dial…

Honestly, if our kid is sick we split the day. I cover 1/2 and my wasband covers 1/2.

Yup this is what we have been doing.

Hey everyone. I found out we are expecting our first child and I’m really nervous. I got into consulting one year ago and I’m up for promotion this year. With timing of our performance conversations I would have to inform I’m pregnant before outcomes - then shortly after the promotion effective date I would go on a leave for due date. I’ve worked really hard and I’m worried our wonderful news will throw chances with this :(- also if I don’t get promoted pretty sure it’s up or out. Any advice?
