[quote=Anonymous]OP You are in a wonderful position to focus on creating a better life for your family I think giving up that level of income entirely seems extreme. It is very very hard to find good childcare now (my niece has interviewed 15 Nannie’s and none have accepted what she needs for a pretty similar situation and she’s offering top dollar. COVID has impacted in home care. I would have love to be at home with a high HHI but I wouldn’t have wanted to be doing it without some freedom (childcare!) and unless I had house cleaned 1x week -it’s not gonna get cleaned. If you are ready to quit let your current firm know you’re serious and see if they truly cannot accommodate WFH or much reduced hours. Also while I would say you have plenty of income and stability keeping ‘in the game’ even if it’s extremely part time will allow you to hop back in later on. Being at home raising kids and running a house is an often lonely and always undervalued choice. You can make it rewarding but I’d approach it less black and white.[/quote]
