While this is a time of uncertainty and new territory for most businesses and schools, I really hope workplaces are accommodating to parents who will need to balance work and life.

One big factor for me working for myself was the flexibility. I couldn’t imagine having a child or two out of school for 2 weeks and feeling the stress of what to do with them because work wasn’t flexible to move online or shift hours. My husband is a teacher, so it wouldn’t be an issue for us, but for many, it is.

Perhaps this is also a learning opportunity for many workplaces for remote and flexible work for employees.

Has your workplace made accommodations?

Also, I hope everyone stays well and washes those hands ☺️
