I am a Work-at-Home mom with 2 toddlers (3yo and 1yo). It has never been our option to get a nanny because we want to be hands-on parents. Yes, my husband and I decided to quit our corporate jobs and now we're both working from home. However, our situation with 2 kids + home based work has been very challenging for us lately. Any tips on how to handle the kids and work with lesser stress and pressure?

in my case, i work from home while my partner has a regular 9 to 5 job that he does from the office. i am also the primary caregiver of two kids, one a kindergarten student and the other a primary school student, and i also have to take care of all the basic chores such as cooking, looking after their studies and so on. what works for me is to create a schedule. in your case, both of you can divide your work time in such a way that someone or the other is always there for the kids. this will help you both concentrate on work at your given time, and also help teh kids feel loved and cared for.
