hi Payal! I absolutely understand your concerns. have been there and done that. i too have two girls with almost same age Gap . Payal u would be required to juggle between home , 2 kids, elders one's studies along with other responsibilities. it's advisable to plan the day in such a manner that u r able to pay attention to elder one when your lil one is sleeping . if you are in a joint family set up then a grandparent can take care of your lil one , once he is fed.. also try and teach your elder one self studying by assigning him work which u can correct as soon as u get time in between. u could explain a concept and give him one or two examples and he could carry on. once your lil is sleeping and elder one is in school u could make test papers for him, which he can do after is thorough with concepts . mark syllabus he is supposed to cover on that particular day. thay way u will save lot of time. hope this will be of help to u!
