[quote=Anonymous]I’m on my own with a 3 year-old and 1 year-old during what I think is the hardest time of day - 5:00-7:00 pm. Our nanny goes home and then I have two hours to bathe the kids, make dinner, get everyone fed, and put the baby to sleep while DH finishes work. It sounds easy, but everyone is cranky at this point and clinging to me. It ends up taking forever to cook because I’m constantly tending to something else. And it’s so stressful! Help! What do you do to make nights easier with young kids when you’re on your own 5 nights a week? I can’t justify paying the nanny to stay late every night and also don’t think it’s fair to her. I feel like a completely incompetent parent.[/quote]
