My wife does not work. She wouldn't have made enough to pay for childcare anyway, plus this is what she really wanted to do in the first place (homeschool the kids). We also moved to a cheaper city where the cost of living is more affordable. We don't live in an expensive house, cars are used and payed for. You can make it work, but there are trade-offs. I will also mention: we have 5 kids. Oldest now in college, youngest in 4th grade.
