[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not comfortable with the level of in-house help described here, so here's what we've done without involving a lot of hired help (though we do have a cleaner come once or twice a month for a deep clean):

Snoo if your baby is still small (it had our infant sleeping through the night by 8 weeks); mail order decent quality baby/toddler food (Yumi, Little Spoon, Nurture Life); meal boxes or Galley for our dinner (we like Plated). If cooking, we cook our meals after kids have gone to bed, which is around 7/7:30. The meal boxes are quick and easy and require no planning, though prep + clean up takes about an hour (we split this up, one of us cooks and one cleans). I find it relaxing to cook those at the end of the day because they're so easy, but we tend to order Galley or other delivery if too tired. Dinner is usually wrapped up by 8:30 and we work for a few hours after that.

I think it will be a lot more manageable once the baby starts sleeping through the night. [/quote]

You aren’t comfortable with the level of help described because you have one infant.  Report back on how well you are doing with limited help when you have two plus kids who are actually mobile and need to eat real food and can make a mess and need homework help and library books and permission forms and on and on and on.[/quote]

she said "after kids have gone to bed" so it sounds like she has more than one kid.  [/quote]
