Lets talk school age summer child care
What do you do with your school age child if you are a working outside the home parent?
I have 3 days covered, but 2 days between 2:30-5:30 I am stuck.
Not sure if I should put him in something or just take my chances and piece it together with a relative or friend here in there.
I hate to pay when it really only comes down to 3 hours, for 12 days (when you subtract vacation time).
But the peace of mind might be worth it.
But I can use to save some money
What are you doing? WWYD?

I really don't think you will find a camp program with those hours. Most of them end at 3 or 4, but often have an aftercare program for children that attend the day program. Maybe you can hire a high school student or someone to come to you to babysit?
My son is going to camp where DD goes to daycare and I'm thrilled that I won't be driving all over the universe picking up and dropping off!

I know wherever I find, I will need to put him full day, I have a couple options nearby that are open to 6.
But I am toying with taking the risk of not having something steady, getting sitters here and there

Re: Lets talk school age summer child care
Camp is ridiculously expensive for school aged kids UNLESS you manage to get into your district summer program. Our district has one - but I found out late and it was all filled up.
I am considering 2 summer camps and 1 at home option. Both of the camps have part time available - Chatterbox and the YMCA.
Good luck!
