My two DC need me close, all of the time - if I'm not physically attached to one or the other they'll create merry hell to bring me back into the same room as them and then will need me to physically cuddle, soothe and sit with them. It's a stage they need to go through but it means I literally get nothing done beyond feeding them. I'm barely keeping up with the basics around the house, or bathroom gets a wipe down while they're in the bath, laundry gets put away while they're getting dressed.
We were given an adoption allowance to support the children and we've decided to use some of it to get a cleaner in - which will help save my sanity coping with two limpet children. The thing is, I don't know what cleaners will and won't do for you. I assume they don't do general tidying up - more proper cleaning etc so I'm thinking of things like deep cleaning the kitchen and bathrooms, dusting and polishing, cleaning the floors all of which would definitely help. What other things will they do?
