Anyone else feel like this?

[Amazing77]

I feel like a rubbish parent. I work and have two children (both nearly 10). Other half works full time too. Also doing up house. Everything feels too much and gets a bit too stressful. I like my job. But there aren't enough hours in the day for the pulls on my time and sanity. I try to get help im, but could probably do with someone to help a couple of hours a day...but would it help?

Yes if I had the budge I'd defo get someone in. What will you do with your extra time?

Extra time will be taken up by jobs currently don't have time to do...just so fed up with this busy life

Anything you can drop or delegate? If i had the budget would definitely be getting help in. What's stopping you?

Good point Mulch. I do already have a cleaner, but cleanings only half the job really. Was contemplating swapping cleaner for an aupair, but really worried that this might lead to a lovely half naked young thing prancing round the house. I guess I could advertise locally for help. So hard when you have come from a scrimping and saving background...

Haha specify mature or use an agency, they'll be pretty used to those same concerns :)

I just found a site chatting about an agency that supplies granny aupairs
