Hi
Has anyone changed there child's school because of problems with after school childcare?
My dd starts school this September and I feel like I chosen the wrong school. It turns out it's the only school in my area that doesn't have an after school club and local childminders/ nurseries do not do picks ups to (they do for the other schools).
I work full time 9 till 5 so either need before school childcare or after school care (and also have a ds at nursery) and I don't have any friends/family that would be able to pick ds up for me either.
As it was my first time chiding schools I just assumed that they all had after schools clubs. I have found a childminder who has an assistant that is willing to pick up but I'm not very confident in them plus they're not the cheapest either.
I also visited the school the other day when they did the student induction day and wasn't too impressed with it to be honest, it's a small school and didn't seem motivating. So I'm considering changing schools after the first term if I can - what would you do?
