Hi all,

So, i am a single parent now and am thinking about reducing my hours from full time. I can work from home 3-4 days per week full time but wondered if there is a sweet spot. Or if actually, working full time has worked well for you.
I am thinking of doing shorter days monday to friday but wouldn't want to go any less than 28 hours a week. Ideally i want to work as many hours as i can handle without burning myself out so curious as to what works for everyone else.
As a disclaimer, i love my job, its flexible but to me money is important. i was raised poor and crave the stability that a good income offer and that i didn't have at all growing up. So whilst i have full respect tp all mummies who are doing the most amazing job as full time mums, that just isnt mean for a number of deep seated reasons. Thanks you x
