Work-life balance for working mums
The summer holidays are in full swing. And although my toddler is happily playing away at nursery throughout the week, I know from other parents, the summer holidays currently feel like a second job. It comes as no surprise that there’s a growing debate in the news about shortening the school summer break – six weeks is a long time to juggle childcare, work deadlines, and the guilt that comes with feeling like you’re never quite giving enough to either. The question is, how do you strike a balance without burning out? Work-life balance is key, and here at Govtech, I’m fortunate to have just that. (Plus, I have two more years before I need to comprehend the six-weeks holiday!)
