As the news of the Covid-19 lockdown broke, I packed my desk with trepidation.
Working from home is the dream, I thought. But also, how was I going to work full-time and manage the household chores and my two young children without the help of school and a childminder? With social distancing in place, even my reliable in-laws where off-limits for support.
I wasn't the only one struggling with this as around the globe lockdowns forced families into new and challenging ways of working, schooling and getting by.
