Small humans are fantastic! And exhausting! Sometimes you need someone to step in to give you a little time off; to have a date night, attend a class, take a walk, meet a friend for coffee. All of these, and a hundred more ideas, are important ways for you to care for yourself while I care for your little human.
Looking forward...
