People with kids and full time jobs, what does your schedule looks like?

We only have daycare twice a week, and my partner and I both work full time. I’ve been working from 6–10 AM, spend the day with my son, and come back 4–8 PM, but I wonder if there’s a better way?

@rafa our schedule is similar if the tasks require deep work — usually from 8–11 AM.

I will spend the rest of the day with my sons so my wife can work too. Fortunately, she is also working full-time from home.

Then I continue again from 8–12 PM where my timezone will overlap with my coworkers. This is when my wife will take over and accompany the kids.

@sayzlim can you find any spare time to spend with your wife? 😅

I was doing something similar to you before (working until 1 AM) but found it very lonely.

@rafa hahaha, we shop groceries nearby and cook lunch together, or go to nearby Starbucks drive thru taking the kids along.

I think no matter what we do, we always end up tired taking care of the kids. Just need to enjoy the process while the kids are still young.
