At 42, I unexpectedly became pregnant with our daughter. When she was born, we juggled her childcare between the two of us, working from home and maintaining flexibility.
When Isabella was 3, she was diagnosed with autism. Very quickly, her support and needs ramped up, requiring applied behavior analysis therapists and increased attention from us as parents.
We decided that one of us would need to stay home to take care of Isabella. We couldn't continue to both work long hours and juggle family simultaneously.
We wanted her primary child carer to be one of us, rather than paying someone else to do it, reflecting a deep commitment to our daughter's care.
