Going back to work - part time - daycare day question

I am going back to work part time for a month and then will go back full time.   I would like to do Monday, Wednesday, Friday....that way I have a day to recover.  However the daycare is suggesting, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and say that it is easier on the child.  Anyone have any thoughts?

  • Maybe it is because it would be easier for a baby to be in that type of environment three days in a row, so that way they get used to it and remember it.

  • I used to work in a daycare and for children who got upset at being away from Mom & Dad, it was much harder on them if they came alternate days. They settled in much quicker when they came three days in a row, even better when they just came full time (though obviously, that depends on the parents' situations).
