Proud Parent
Hi, I'm new...to the forum and with a 6.5 yr old DD who is new to gymnastics. She started a rec class earlier this year and we quickly added a second class each week because she LOVES it. So now she goes twice a week and is happy.
She recently asked me about the team, (after seeing one of the preteams practicing wearing their pretty matching leotards). I told her that we could look into for the future, but I was generally noncommittal because I didn't want her to consider it if it is not possible for us.
I have some general info on how much being on the team costs, and the time commitment for each level (from our gym's website). My question is: how do you make it work when the 2 parents work full time regular business hours outside the home? My DD goes to after school care on the weekdays, but I could possibly arrange to come home early for those days she would need to be at the gym. But if the summer schedule included daytime practices, we would never be able to do those. How do you handle this?
Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
