When do you eat?!?!

[Littledragon]

I just started my full daycare this week: three little ones plus my son. I have a two year old that doesn't nap in the morning and I am finding I am having a hard time taking time to eat. I usually ate during morning anfternoon naps - yesterday I didn't eat until 1:30. I was FAMISHED!

When do you guys eat and how?!

I eat lunch when the kids eat, I get them started and then usually munch on leftovers while they eat. If I need more time then I give the kids a homemade yogurt Popsicle, they love them and it takes a long time to eat them so win for them and win for me

Good I have the opposite problem ~ I tend to eat when the kids eat so morning snack at 9 and nibble at lunch at noon while preparing and feeding them PLUS during nap time and than nibble again with them at 3

You have to definitely MAKE time for a break ~ I am taking my tea break now while they are all contained at the table and exploring with some rainy day play doh.

I have everyone down for a nap by noon then I make my lunch. I try to get everyone on the same sleep schedule as soon as I can! If they need a morning nap still then I tend to do it as early as I can and put off the regular afternoon nap to 1:30 so I have at least some time to myself.

I also keep grapes handy to munch on if I don't think I'm gonna make it.

I'm eating lunch right now while I wait for the children all around me in their beds to fall asleep. I feed them breakfast shortly after 8am then let them freeplay after while I eat my breakfast. It also gives me an opportunity to go on the computer and take a break to see some adult conversation during those times.

I too eat my lunch when they're down for their naps 12:30-1:00.....I've never been a breakfast person so I just have my coffee in the morning.

I too feed the kids breakfast and while they are free playing I eat and for lunch I make mine at 12:30 once all the kids are down for nap.

I try to eat when the kids are eating, but that doesn't always happen. I normally make my self some lunch when they are all sleeping.

I eat when the kids eat. We all sit together at the kitchen table and eat snacks/lunch together.

I eat my own breakfast during morning snack, then I eat lunch after I put them down for a sleep between 12:30-1pm...works for me!
