[quote=Anonymous]My DH is deployed and I’m working from home with a seven-year-old and a 2.5 year old with a pre-existing lung condition so she cannot go back to daycare nor can my 7 year old go to school. What makes my life and job possible is a very strict routine. I don’t know what kind of work you do, OP, but I am able to get about five hours in before the kids wake up and after they go to bed. I also have completely child-proofed and gated the small room off the room where I work so my toddler can play safely while I work. I try to schedule all meetings during her nap time which I pushed back to 2 to 3:30 just for that reason. Play around with your schedule and your child’s nap schedule. I have friends who’ve taken on the PT zone just to get the nap where it’s needed (their kids get up at 9 rather than 6 - everything is three hours later). All the best! It sucks but it’s not forever.
