PhD Student and Mom

Graduate student and infant careSome days we are baby central at Cubes & Crayons.  We absolutely adore our little ones and the great moms and dads that go with them.  One great little one and his mom Elly are a welcome part and long time members of the Cubes & Crayons community.   Find out how C&C works for this team.

What is kind of work do you do?

I am in the first year of my PhD, studying people's experiences of stress and coping during fertility treatment.  I was accepted a month before our son was born!

What is your favorite part of being part of the Cubes&Crayons community?
It took me a while to get started:  I kept putting it off thinking I could cops as things were.  In the end, I cam along to one of the social events to look around.  I booked our first session the next morning and am now using Cubes & Crayons three mornings a week.  I get so much done that the extra time I work at home feels like a bonus, and I can relax and enjoy the time I then have with my son. The rates are excellent, too!

I love coming to Cubes & Crayons for the friendly community feel.  It is a positive feel that being parents there is an  important as our work.  I like that I get the work feel and social interaction that I can't get at home on my own.

 

At Cubes & Crayons, you can have your cake and eat it, too.  What's your favorite kind of cake?
Mmmm cake.  Do I have to choose one?  I'm not sure that is possible.

What brought you to Cubes&Crayons?

I had been trying to study while my son is sleeping. He is a good sleeper, but not that good!  I Gradwas getting more and more stressed trying to balance motherhood and work.  When I heard about Cubes & Crayons it sounded like an ideal solution.  I love that I can tailor my hours each week and that I am within earshot of him and can drop in and say hi at any time.  And he benefits from an established caregiver in his life and a new social environment.
