A Motherhood Series: Stay At Home vs Career by Elvisa Van Der Leden – Coromind Issue 21, 2024

My husband and I were fortunate enough to both be home full-time with our toddler and four month old baby while I was on six months of Paid Parental Leave (PPL). While this period did require financial and social sacrifices, we made it work and were grateful to be able to invest so much time, energy and love into our babies in those early months. We were so aware that not everyone is lucky enough to be able to do that as a couple.www.coromind.nz
