You have a valid concern, I offer another that may affect your morale more;  Traffic.  A 0600 shift change in some places means a 30 minute commute, 0800 means 1.5 hour commute, or at least something to that effect.  Look at night shift as well as day shift.  A 0700 shift change usually gives you a decent commute in all but the worst urban areas.  Your experience may differ.  A good commute will help your child time.
