[quote=Anonymous]DH and I both work FT and in my experience (both lived and observed, for what that's worth) the answer is: find a good nanny! Having someone reliable that you trust come to your home and care for your children, handle drop-offs and pickups as they get older, is by far the best solution IMO if you want to continue to work. To add: I am not at all against SAHPs and think it's great for families for whom that division of labor works, but I feel you, OP. My father passed away when my brother and I were really young and I saw how my mom, who had been a SAHM and was left trying to support a growing family, struggled. So for me, my career is an important factor to my own peace of mind/mental health.[/quote]
