Establishing A Routine Helps
If you have older children, by now they have got habituated to the virtual 
classrooms. Therefore, while you commit a time for your children every morning 
and encourage them to follow a routine to complete their work on their own, you 
make a list of your absolute-musts and to-dos ready along with an estimated 
time-frame to complete them without any interruption. Establishing a routine, 
indeed, will help in assisting your child once you’re free from your work. 
However, if you have younger children at home, sometimes, you might just take 
longer than your estimated time-frame. As younger children might be needing 
individual attention from you. 
Creating Boundaries Can Be Intimidating
But it is equally important. After all, it’s overwhelming, if you would have to 
attend to your child, who’s might be crying for some snacks, while you’re trying 
to complete a spreadsheet or you might have to attend to a call or email from 
your boss, at the same time. So, allocate different times for both. If you have an 
older child, telling him or her not to disturb you, within that time-frame, unless it 
is urgent, is a good idea. On contrary, if your child is young, make your house 
more accessible for him or her, along with a nanny to be there to attend to him

mails and meet your deadlines.  
Setting Up an Office Space is Necessary
In-between fulfilling your needs for your 
child, and other family members, you 
might be certainly needing a quite space 
to work. In that case, try to figure out 
what works out best for you, and use that 
much only. You might, for instance, 
choose a corner of your house, pull out a 
dining chair for a desk chair, and clear off 
a counter to dedicate a space for your 
monitor or laptop, printer and a few cups 
of pens. In this kind of set up you can just 
close the door behind you, and work, 
while your children are also busy with 
their grandparents, nannies, games or 
studies. However, if you are constantly 
moving, and interacting, you can set up 
same space in your living room too.

Take Short Breaks Between Work, If Possible
May be only for 35 to 40 minutes. The whole idea is to give your mind a point 
of relaxation and let your children know that you are free for them, for some 
time. In fact, if you have a play corner or study corner set up for them, with 
their favourite toys or books, and colourful mats, you may very well go and 
spend some time playing or reading  with your kids. This will also be a time, 
when you can prepare some wonderful snacks for your kids and for yourself 
and can have them together, while you interact with each other.

Divide Home Responsibilities Between You and Your 
Partner
Yes! Set specific goals for each corner of house and for the work that might be 
related to your kids. And have it discussed and sorted well in advance. 
Communicate these roles separately to your children so that, they know whom to 
approach for their requirement. This in a way will be an example of team work in 
front of your kids. Not only will they be happy, seeing their parents working 
together in the house, but they will also understand no work is gender-specific in 
the household.
Keep Your Expectations Real
While you’re working from home with your children in tow, not all days are going 
to be smooth. So, if you have made a few mistakes in your work, while attending 
to your child’s tantrums, remember, you’re not a superhuman. Neither are you a 
parent, who’s someone out of your favourite movie. So, no guilt trips.
At The End
Setting up a time-table and following it will surely make working from home and
