🎬 Emergency Childcare Hacks for Moms in Film
Moms in film, we know the struggle: long hours, unpredictable shoots, and babysitters falling through. Here’s how you can build a backup plan and stay on set without the stress:
1. Build Your Support Network
- Family (duh): Grandparents, siblings, or trusted relatives who can step in.
- Friends: Build your network of film moms—let’s create a circle of help and support. Hint, hint 😉
- Agency: Professional, vetted childcare agencies that offer last-minute coverage.
2. Advocate for On-Set Childcare
- Push for on-set crèches or nannies — this is a growing conversation in the U.K. and we’ll cover how to make it a reality soon.
- Pairing your child at work with professional care is the ideal solution where possible.
3. Flexible Solutions
- Job Share: Split shifts with another parent on set.
- Bring Your Child to Work: For roles where it’s feasible, normalize this with paired childcare support.
- Au Pair: Consider short-term or temporary au pairs who can be on-call for shoots.
