[quote=Anonymous]My spouse and I work at home often but I work fewer hours. If he’s working, the kids are expected to act as if he’s at the office, and I handle everything. During a very rough period my husband would come do a quick check in with our struggling kid at a pre specified time (when they got home from school) but it was always he came down, not the kids went into the office to chat. I think that’s been helpful. Depending on how flexible your schedule is, you could have the nanny text you updates about the kids day like she might even if you were at the office and you could decide if and when you wanted to come out and visit. But I’d still try and have it be specific times. My kids can’t handle wondering if dad will appear even if I’m available and trying to be fun. [/quote]
