[quote=Anonymous]Four kids. As others have mentioned the younger years are easy - we did daycare and just made it work. DH works a lot and my job is more flexible but we were both WOHP before COVID. All of our kids have some mild to moderate special needs and usually at least a couple are seeing therapists/tutors/etc. We have in and got a nanny this year (youngest is 4). The elementary years are brutal with kids wanting to do activities. I can’t be in multiple places at once and out dinner on the table and help with homework (DH works until 7 pm most nights). Nanny makes it all possible now. I anticipate having a nanny until the youngest can drive. FWIW my job has some flexibility, but I don’t need to work, I want to work - DH makes plenty to support us. That matters to me because on days when I feel like it’s all just too much I really can think about quitting. I haven’t yet, but it’s nice to know it my choice. [/quote]
