[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What crappy responses. I did this freelance work for several years when my kids were little, working mostly at night after they were in bed. A lot of very late nights. I also was in grad school when they were little and had a sitter for classtime, but did all my studying late at night. OP, you can do it for awhile, especially when you have one child who is a good napper, but it's not sustainable over the long haul. You really do need childcare in order to give your sharpest mind to your work and get most of it done in daylight hours. I know that childcare is expensive, but there comes a point when it's the only way.[/quote] I agree with this. I did it for two years, and now with a preschooler who doesn't nap, and a newborn, I've hired a part-time nanny so I can get my work done during the day rather than 10-midnight. Sleep is also important.[/quote]
