Child support doesn't necessarily entitle you to know the name of the sitter and school.

What he needs a child custody order that forces you to disclose this information (assuming you won't give it voluntarily).

If he has shared legal custody, he is entitled to that information. Nevertheless, you have to weigh the realities of the situation. He can always go to court to modify the custody order to permit him to find the name of the sitter and school and to pick him up from both locations. He may or may not be successful in court. Do you really want to waste time and money fighting over this?
