[quote=Anonymous]Another strong vote for house manager! My DD & SIL have a great daycare and the other grandmother/not me picks my grandsons up from daycare early most days but with two busy jobs they were both working late into night after bedtime and catching up on weekend as the stresses from running household kept them running. They hired a house manager for 4 hours a day and its been a miracle. Both can focus fully on work while at work but now come home to meals prepped, house clean and organized, mail sorted and packages dealt with. I think its more than paid for by the strides they’ve both made in their jobs and their successes there. OP look at easing stresses on your time and you see if yiu can keep working FT. Totally ridiculous comment that kids need to see parents do housework to become self sufficient. As more and more of us do the vast majority of shopping online, get groceries delivered and arrange for services online-what are kids supposed to observe? How well we navigate an app?[/quote]
