Depends on the salary bump (enough for nanny, etc. )

Sounds like you need a nanny and the ability to pay them overtime, or have your parents pick up slack there.
Rising Star
Personally, I wouldn’t. At this age and for the next few years, there are so many random sick days, forgotten bag at home requiring you to go back, crying nights, etc., that if they cannot give you some grace when life happens, you’re going to be so miserable and stressed.
And is that really a company you want to invest your time in? Why should you expect their attitude about being inflexible for normal life situations to change once you are promoted?
Maybe if the raise is enough to pay for a full-time nanny it’s worth it, but I wouldn’t expect the situation to change once you are promoted.
Is the firm in consulting or industry? I left consulting for a promo and raise and had the same concerns. Turns out even with the added pressure of new firm / new team, people are way more understanding of “life” and everything that comes with it.

It’s another consulting firm.... I am happy to hear that! The current firm keeps telling me how my job is secure no matter what happens, life, recession, etc. but the new firm won’t be the same...
Fellow Deloitte single mom here. I have similar thoughts too, but whose to say you can’t have both! Deloitte has stated they want more women in leadership roles. Why not you?

I need to provide for my baby. But then I’m a bit concerned about if my elderly parents would stay healthy to provide consistent childcare.... the new firm wouldn’t understand if life gets difficult. It would be a pretty strict up or out.
