It sounds so lovely: getting through your day feeling relaxed. But is that really achievable as a working parent, or is it just wishful thinking?

Hi! I’m Marjan, 26 years old, and I live with my boyfriend in Someren. I started my education in Recreation and Tourism, where I especially loved the entertainment side of things—particularly when it involved working with children. After that, I went on to study Pedagogy in Nijmegen because I was interested in learning more about child development and how the brain works. For me, those studies really complemented each other. Babysitting through Charly Cares fits perfectly within that same picture.

Hi! I’m Charly (35), (attempting to be) a successful entrepreneur, and mother of two daughters, Olivia (3.5 years old) and Valentina (5 months).

And I can’t be the only one wondering about this, right?
