Hi mums I introduce myself, I'm a 32 years old mum of 2 boys, one is 3 years old and the youngest is 15 months old and we live in a town in Hertfordshire (UK). I started recently working from home as a multilingual support advisor and I'm finding it really challenging. I'm not planning of sending my kids to nursery/school as I'm planning to homeschool them. My level of stress is reaching a very high level right now and I'm afraid to fail my family and not being able to be the best mother I can. My children need a lot of attention all day long and it's hard for me to set boundaries, I need to be concentrate on what I do, but I can feel that they feel ignored and rejected. On top of this, I don't have any friends where I live, the only person I have around is my husband and I feel lonely and isolated.
I was thinking of creating a net of other mothers with children of the same age that stay home or working (from home or not) and try to build a routine together, get to know each other and having them coming home whilst I work so the children can be together, play together and I can have the peace of mind to work, knowing my children won't feel the weight of being lonely and isolated. The problem is... I don't know anyone and I don't even know where to start 😫any mum of 1 to 3 years old from my area that would link to link up?
