This has been my experience too.
If both parents are working full time (not furloughed) then you often end up working early mornings and evenings to compensate for lost time during the day.
Same is also true if you have younger kids but either / both parents work jobs that require lots of formal meetings. As understanding as employers have been, there’s only so many times one can have a meeting interrupted because a doll fell over or Duplo piece fell off an impossible structure. So parents will often arrange their day where they essentially tag-team their day, meaning lost hours are made up in the early mornings / late evenings.
