[quote=Anonymous]Not sure if this a real estate or parenting question. We have 2 under 3 and live in a 2 bedroom apartment that is 885 sq feet. Both parents work out of the home (even during covid) and kids have a mix of grandparents and a babysitter (in the apartment). So far this is working but I'm not sure if we are being naive about what the next few years looks like in terms of covid and how kids use space when they get older. We planned to buy a house in a few years (5ish). We did start looking now but the market seems insane and if we move we lose our current child care arrangement and have to find a new one which seems daunting. I'm worried about the winter and worried if school is not full time next year we won't have prek3 and will therefore need to put older one in expensive private preschool (no inexpensive options near us and grandparents can't keep up the arrangement forever). Should we but a bigger place further out or smaller place near in or just stay? Does a 3 or 4 year old use more space than a 2 year old? We luckily have access to good outdoor options very nearby by not as easy as a fenced backyard (but maybe similar to unfenced?)[/quote]
