I have a 3 year old returning to me part time after mother's maternity leave, I only had him ad hoc so when mum didn't need me during her maternity we decided to leave it until she returned to work. I have a contract in place for him for ad hoc care.
From next month I will also be having the baby.
My question is until January mum will be working thursday and friday and I will be having both children. But from January it will return to the ad hoc care. What do I do about contracts?
Do I need one for each child for November - January and then another one from January onwards?
Can I use a short term contract and where do I get them from?
Can I write my own contract for the next 3 months and then go back to the NCMA one when mum returns to 'normal' working hours in January?
Or could I agree with mum that the contract is for 1 day a week, no matter what, ad hoc or regular hours, and any extra she pays as and when she needs me.
just a bit confused as I don't want to waste contracts for the sake of 3 months and then have to re-do them!:(
