I am a SWE in CA with 5 kids and no family support. We make it work…it’s hard but we have each other. Europe seems very different than US/CA for SWE so there’s likely a trade off there as well. One suggestion is to maybe focus on building up the initial wealth for a few more years while the kids are younger and then reassess. If you’re diligent you could get both. Family support/babysitting is helpful ideally until the oldest is middle school age where they then can start watching the younger ones. We also homeschool and I believe it’s illegal in Germany so that limits some education options.
