My town's pools don't open until 11 a.m., which means I have about four hours every morning to fill for my kids, and my gym's childcare program is a lifesaver. Whether I drop them off for 45 minutes so I can fit in a quick, sanity-saving workout, or for two full hours (my gym's maximum time) for a workout, steam, and shower, we all enjoy the structure and change of scenery the gym provides.
