I think it probably depends a lot on your employees. Some might be really interested in what is going on and enjoy being in the loop. Some might have been burnt before so actively want to see signs of decay or lack of growth. Some are there

I forgot to recommend asking for help. Ideally parents close by, but friends, relatives ask for baby sitting and time out. If you dont have anyone like this dont do it yourself, get a nanny or similar.
