I envy your reality. In mine adults have to do work at random times during the day and holes in childcare exists. Something like an adult-only home office and childcare without holes is a pipe dream.

Yeah my wife takes care of our kids during work hours. We're pretty strict about office door closed == dad working.

Interesting, I grew up in a house like that, and didn't see much of my dad for many years because of it. Something I didn't do with my own daughter, I always loved her coming into to distract me when I was working from home (pre-pandemic).

I'm with the kids 7-9 (wakeup and breakfast) and 5:30 - 9 (dinner, play, bedtime). Plus weekends. It's fine.
Great to hear, I'm sure they appreciate that very much.
