After 7 years of doing home daycare, I feel the same way. My daycare day used to begin at 7 and end at 5:30, and now I open at 7:30 and close at 4:30. It's a tough job. I found that I was losing patience with my youngest. My sister has a home daycare as well, and thankfully, takes my dude a couple of days a week, which gives me a bit more 'me' time. I try to clean up while the kids are awake as well, to maximize free time. Hang in there!!
