I don't work all the time. That's why I waited to have children until I was ready for that. I try to organise my time according to them because they need me. I don't want to put my work first anymore because it's not as important as my children.

I've worked with a lot of kids, and when you're working with kids they have certain hours that they have to work.

When the children were very small, I worked in the morning only, and then gradually, as they spent full days at school, I could spend full days at work.

I have more time to work; I just do. Because once your kids are up and running, that frees you up a good 20, 30, hours a week.

It is true that as you have children, there are a good many months when you don't want to be working full-time. I agree that that's an issue.

It's not enough to make time for your children. There are certain stages in their lives when you have to give them the time when they want it. You can't run your family like a company. It doesn't work.

I don't know why some people have children at all if they know that they can only take a few weeks off work.

Kids are a huge sacrifice; they change everything - but I'm ready to work for things of greater importance than going out to meet someone for dinner at 10 o'clock at night.

My job starts at a quarter to seven in the morning, and you go right through until whatever time is necessary to finish up.

Any job I choose has to work with my schedule with my kids. I don't want to miss any of my time with them.
