How to Find Childcare for Kids with Different Spring Break Schedule?

Since the school knows it has a different sort of schedule, have you tried asking the school administration or teachers or counselor if they know of options? They must be aware that all the families in the school might need "coverage" and will have a hard time finding it in an area where all the spring break camps are geared to the public school schedule. So the school teachers/administrators surely have had this question before and might know of resources for you.

Some private schools run "camps" or special class options during the spring break week for their own students, so that kids whose parents must work during spring break can send the kids to school for fun (paid!) extras -- arts, athletics, etc. If your school does not provide this option now, suggest it for coming years.

Hi N.-

I used to live in sterling...(say hello to wegman's for me! lol)

I remember Fairfax county schools were often on a different vacation schedule than loudoun...you might want to check there...you are not far from the county 'line'

Best Luck

call your local park districts they usually have the camp things for 2 or 3 weeks ina row as public schools always have different breaks than private schools. that way they make the money from all angles lol. good luck

Aren't there any city camps?

I think it's really dumb that the local schools don't all have the same spring break. That's always pissed me off.

But, we have a great city camp program here. Maybe you have one in VA?
