Devs with young kids: how the hell do you do it?

I am a foster parent for my cousin who is 4 months old and I don’t know how in the fuck to make this work. How do you do it? How do you balance code and kid?

For reference I work full time at a tech support place, I go to school full time, and I’m trying to pivot into software development, which means any free time is spent coding/studying code/building a portfolio. Problem is I don’t have free time because of the baby. How in the hell do people do this.

    Well, it is easier if you are two sharing the burden.

    Don’t know either - I’m a father of two (4 and 12 yrs) and that’s why I work mostly at office. Working from home is possible only at night, when they’re sleeping...

    No solution for you, but kudos looking after family, working and following your dreams. Few people have the courage to do that.
