I have an 8 month old, my productivity has definitely increased working from home, granted there is the odd moment I am taken away from my work, on the whole though it is a net gain. Not to mention the lack of commuting having a positive effect on my wallet
Perhaps with toddlers things will be more difficult, but my spouse and I have an agreement to treat my work space as an office and only disturb when absolutely necessary.
I do miss the office environment though

- lifeisstillgood 6y agoOh you have a live-in nanny and housekeeper already. But don't worry, after a couple more "start-ups" the live-in Nanny will hit scalability issues, and will need you to concentrate on the Ops side as well, andI warn you that easy solutions like hiring a young underpaid intern may result in industrial action !
- Hedepig 6y agoI mustn't have explained my situation clearly I'm a junior/mid Web dev who has an 8 month old, my wife is on maternity leave, when she goes back to work he will go to nursery.
- lifeisstillgood 6y agoI dont think I signalled my (gentle) sarcasm clearly. I wish you and your wife all the best.

- curlypaul924 6y agoMy productivity increased when my son was that age. This was before COVID-19; I was working from home a lot for other reasons. With two kids I have to schedule my time a lot more carefully to reach the same level of productivity. Even typing this comment I have to compromise on getting the exact wording I want lest I get interrupted before I finish typing.
