Legal Question in Family Law in California

My ex-husband has a history of not taking our children when offered on first right of refusal for my work related travel(one to two times a year). I understand that if I offer the time to him and he refuses and I then need childcare, I can bill him for his share of the costs. To date, he has not paid any of his court ordered child care costs. This particular trip, while just being a day and a half, will include an overnight stay and I cannot afford

"typical" childcare, especially since he does not reimburse as ordered. Am I able to pay a relative to stay with my children and still bill the father for his share of the costs?

Thank you,

Lisa

If the court order does not prohibit this child care arrangement, then it would be permissable.
