My husband and I are both working professionals with work between regular hours. We are also new parents.

Ever since we started daycare, our kid has been getting sick very often. And we understand that it’s very normal occurrence. It happens. Hand foot, mouth disease, chickenpox, bad cold, throwing up, covid etc.

How do you guys do it with work etc.? I’m having to pick up my kid in the afternoon and I have to take time off work. There’s only so much time I can take off. My husband can’t take it off because he is a first responder and these things usually are called last minute. My workplace hasn’t said anything but I feel bad doing this so often.
