What is the name of your state? MD
I need to set up after school care for my kindergartener. I would prefer to arrange activities for afterschool as apposed to a daycare setting/environment. For example, on Mondays and Wednesdays he would have horse back riding lessons. And on Tuesday and Thursday, he would have guitar lessons. I have an arrangement with another Mother at the school bus stop who would walk or drive him where he needed to go. There are times that I am able to get home in time to atleast catch the last half of these activities but the pressure of trying to beat traffic on the commute home has me pulling my hair out. I do not want child to sit somewhere like a daycare when he could be learning something or experiencing something more positive.
Has anyone had any experience with convincing the other parent that it is a better situation for their child?
