Entertaining baby

I’m looking for ways to keep my 9mo entertained whilst I’m working. I’ll be going back to work part time in a couple of weeks and I work from home. I am not technically meant to have my baby during work hours but I have had a bit of a hard time finding a childminder. My SIL will have him for the first couple of weeks whilst I’m training so my boss won’t know I have him during the first month or so but unfortunately she will not be able to look after him long term as she is currently pregnant. I will be working 4hrs 4 days and 8hrs on one day.

Could you put him into a nursery maybe for them hours? Especially if you aren’t meant to have your baby during your work hours as this can cause issues down the line if your boss finds out. A playpen might be a good idea for now but it’ll be tough when baby starts walking x

@Julia I don’t qualify for the free 15hrs as he was born in July and it’s not really worth me going back to work if I have to pay the fees! Xx I worked for the same company before but my part time work is kind of a trial for a month and I doubt that my baby will start working within the month so I am hoping to keep it on the down low for that time so that I can’t be dismissed without notice x

Just give him toys and occasionally look at him and sing songs. It will be a way for him to increase his attention span and not get bored so easily and also if he whines a bit of cartoons don’t hurt. Don’t you have anyone else to help out and come over xx

@Denisa sadly no! All friends and family work during day hours other than SIL but she is 7 months pregnant and has 5 other children of hers! X
