[quote=Anonymous]Yes, get help so your DD can do big kid stuff. SAHM of a 5 year old and 2 year old. Pre-COVID, 5 year old was in morning preschool, then I’d pick her up, put 2 year down for nap, focus on 5 year old, then around 3 go to gymnastics or playground, then DH would be home about 6. So, all in all, I really only had to entertain both of them for 3 hours each day by myself, and I had a schedule that worked. Now my 5 year old accuses me of spending more time with her brother, and that’s true, but he needs constant supervision (even though I’ve childproofed, he’s good at finding trouble). It’s the same amount of time I spent with him pre-COVID, she just didn’t notice because she had her own activities. Now I spend an hour with my 5 year old each evening, as well as during the 2 year old’s nap, which helps, but yes, hire someone to focus on your DD a couple of hours a day. [/quote]
