I know this has been done before but I'm getting v nervous about my impending return to work after maternity leave. I'm going back full time as dh is also full time. We have no family help. We have a three year old and a 8 month old both of whom will be in nursery. My hours will be 7.30am to 4pm five days a week while dh will work 9.30am to 6.30pm. Both of our commutes are a little over an hour each way. He'll do drop off at 8am and I'll be collecting at about 5pm and will do a dinner for us and the kids and bedtimes. I'll leave the house at 6.20am so won't see the children in the mornings.
So far the plan is to get a cleaner and do batch cooking on Sundays. I will have to start having early nights too. Any life hacks that could help things be more manageable?
