    Hi crowley - welcome to 'here', but sorry for the reason.

    How 'early' is the stage you may be referring to? Sorry, but I don't know of any for home care.

    However - there are adult day care places available. I do know someone who brought their LO for a few days a week and it worked out great for everyone.

    look into your elder services in your county. In FL I contacted our program and am on waitlist for services such as day care, in home caregiver , etc…

    best of luck. Sympathies for requiring it.
