Friday - 16 month LO from 12pm until 2.30pm.

I also have another LO, 15 months, 2 days a week but as Mum works shifts it changes every week, his hours are 8am or 10am to 4pm. Never get him on a Friday though which is perfect.

I love my hours, it fits in perfectly with my son's activities and means I'm busy but not having to work until 6pm!!

Have had 2 parents come visit me this week so I might have more soon.

I have done these hours since July and after christmas I am giving notice to weekend mindee. It is too much but mum can not find a cm who works weekends so I feel a bit bad because she will have to give up work.

[appleblossom]

I do Tuesday to Friday: 7.30pm to 6pm. I have three under fives who all do 4 days;

one (aged 2.5) does 7.30am to 4.30pm,
one (aged ms) does 9am to 5pm
the third (aged 2.5) does 8am to 6pm.
No schoolies and my Monday off keeps me sane

[samb]

Woah Jane 5 - I don't know how you are managing without a day off at all! I don't think you should feel bad - sounds like you have done it for as long as you feel you can. You will make yourself ill if you have no break and then would be letting everyone down instead!

Appleblossom - your hours and kids sound great. I like to be full on days when i work and then have a day off too. Obviously you have to do whatever hours you can get but yours sounds perfect.
