I have joined a professional course that requires atleast 4 hrs study daily. I also have a two year old toddler. Can you people give me hints, tips and advice etc on how to pursue my ambition without making my daughter suffer?

I would sit her beside me while I would read my text books and she would "read" her books. Or read to her aloud. She doesn't care what you are saying really. I would use nap time as study time and stay up an hour later than usual to finish off my day of studying...
In fact, now, my daughter knows most of her joints in her body, thanks to A&P classes.

Do your studies at night.
I homeschool all my kids, so they are always around. When I was pregnant with my 5th one I decided I was going to go to college. If I want my kids to do it I need to set the example right? SOOOO I started out with a full boat of 13 credits. Second semester I had 12 credits,started said semester, gave birth, and was back to classes the next week. The following year I was pregnant again and made it through the first semester but because she was due at finals I could not take winter semester.
I was working at the time I was doing all that, nights on my school days off, so I am SOOOOO glad that I am not doing that this year when I start back up again in a few weeks. I will only have to worry about school and the kids this time around. :)

First of all God Bless You! Tip #1 Don't do this alone #2 Time naps with Study #3 Well disciplined children give you more time to study www.loveandlogic.com (I am a parent of 5 and was a professional parent for 6 years raising other peoples kids you can always improve) #4 Pray #5 coloring books, blocks, and other personal toys gives mom time to study #6 recite your study material on tape and listen to your notes with headphones while playing with junior. My wife just finished nursing school with 5 kids, YOU CAN DO THIS!

I went through this at one point. Besides setting aside a small portion of your time, you need to understand that you are doing this for the benefit of your child - to provide a better life. Years have passed since I went through this. My daughter is doing great, and we have a great relationship.
