Asked on May 05th, 2015 on Child Custody - California
More details to this question:
My husband's ex-girlfriend refuses to have me care for their daughter (I've been her stepmother over 7 years) and insists he pay for before and after school care and summer care. I am a stay at home mom and he and I have young twins, I am home to care for her for free. They have joint custody of her, she is nine years old and the original orders were when she was just turning 2 years old. Thank you.

Your husband needs to get his orders updated to be able to have "first option" to use you for child care by agreement and/or litigation. The Court may or may not agree with you being an equal/superior/adequate childcare provider.
