About Sara

My first child is due Feb. 8th 2012. As I wait with anticipation for my breastfeeding adventure to begin, I feel so lucky to be able to be a part of the breastfeeding blog world. For more about me read the About Us section of the blog! This blog is intended to be a place of inspiration and information. It is a place to share stories and ideas. I love hearing from you!

The cost of mat leave

The city of Toronto Children Services has a childcare subsidy probram, which is great, and which I have been using for the past year. I just learned today that it is not possible to work part-time with a baby in a sling, and still bring the older child to daycare. They both need to go full time to daycare or not at all, which makes the transition from mat leave to work a little edgy if you can’t afford two full time spaces at daycare (over 3 000$/month for both children). Hum.. having a second kid requires a second thought.
