I wasn't sure where to put this under the current daycare option or start a new topic, so I chose to start a new topic.

When there is a need for childcare, what can be dones when you need special arrangments (early morning, late day, not every day.)

Though I understand that the need to be careful with safety, environment etc...is there a place you can go to find a community of people who may care for 1 or 2 children is willing to care for an additional child?

Thoughts, considerations anyone?

This is a good subject Gloria. My husband and I don't have much family that live around here. When we say we have 5 kids, we always do. It is rare if we can get away with out them. Also, when I have doctor appointments, hubby takes time off work to watch our children for me. I really need to look into sparadic hourly daycare options.
