I’ve been volunteering at school & a charity the last few years while my youngest settled into school, he’s now going into y2 & my eldest is y5. We’re lucky in that financially we can cope at the moment on 1 income, I was recently offered a 4 day a week job but with holiday clubs, breakfast, afterschool & dog walker fees it didn’t work out financially. I do feel unfulfilled at home now, that’s why I looked for work, but paid work doesn’t seem to be the answer as the hours of any job I find don’t work with the school run, various school days off etc. DH works long hours & is often away, we have no family support do it does all fall to me. My youngest has also been hugely unsettled during lockdown & I worry about the impact on him if I’m not there for him in Sept as I have been, school will feel so different as it is. Has anyone else chosen to stay at home with school age kids?
