Should I quit work?

I'm really conflicted.

2 kids, 3.5 and 1.5. I find being with them both tough.
3.5 in preschool 15 hours a week (we don't qualify for 30)
Currently work 3 days a week as a teacher but having to work more to get the job done
We have a lovely nanny but I currently earn less than she costs us. We can afford this but it feels silly.
Looking to move house so it would give us more freedom of location.
Not in love with my school anymore, still enjoy actual teaching though.

I do enjoy going to work. But I can't get over the fact it's costing me money to do so. I could hand in my notice and leave at Christmas.

Assuming no more children, in three years time they will both be in full-time schooling. Do you think you will be able to go back to your job then, somewhere locally?
