What does it mean to have an important job and at the same time have a child or as in Elisa's case even two or more children. How do you manage to get two full-time jobs into a 7-day week, so to speak, and what's fun about it? Elisa tells us something about her job as a scientist at the University of Leipzig and her experience of combining it with being a mother. She gives us insights into her world and tells us what she wishes should go better. Have fun listening! Feel free to give us your feedback and tell us about your experience with your children's development.
