[quote=Anonymous]I'm not sure what you do but I think it's pretty impossible to work from home with the kids there unless you have a dedicated and long nap time. Even if you do, that changes so rapidly it's unsustainable. I work from home, for myself, part time, but my child is in school. I can get by with teacher workdays and the occasional afternoon conference call, but I could not and would not do as much volume as I do without childcare. And I wouldn't feel honest billing clients for that work if the environment was severely compromised. And an employer wouldn't allow it. The only part time jobs I see as being sustainable without childcare are things like crafting for an Etsy shop, being an artist if you paint when you can, being a freelance writer who can juggle a few deadlines over a few weeks during naptime. But not much else. [/quote]
