[quote=Anonymous]Daycare/preschool/summer camp. We’re still working so we need childcare like anyone else. Our house isn’t huge and I don’t like being a household employer, so we didn’t choose the nanny route although we had to get in-home help with COVID, which was ok, but stressful with so many people in the house all the time, especially during winter. Kids are back in-person now and doing SO much better. They’re both really social kids (preschool and hybrid K). The main upside of working from home as a working parent is cutting out your commute so your kids aren’t in a care setting for a very long time. And with staggering hours, we probably won’t need aftercare next year. Also, my boss is pretty understanding about letting me telework with a sick kid at home every now and then. So it’s that type of thing that makes work from home easier than going into an office. But I would never try to work and care for my kids unless I wanted to lose my last thread of sanity.[/quote]
