I would have made the same choice too :) A flexible schedule is soooo important when you become a parent! And I'm sure your new employer is thrilled to have you onboard. Will you be telling your soon-to-be former employer the real reason you are leaving? Not to burn bridges as you mentioned previously, but to provide constructive criticism so they can maybe not make the same mistake with someone else in the future? Congratulations!

You seem to have a very short notice period over there. In salaried jobs in the UK, one month is standard, and one of my friends has three months. Plenty of time to use all that annual leave. May be the lesson is to use it up as you go along? After all, you aren't indispensable. Excellent. You seem to have a very short notice period over there.
