Richards, 42, said she has no problem juggling the children with filming for her new show, reported Contactmusic.
"I'm on an ensemble show so, I'm not in every scene. I have days off and I go in for a couple of hours and shoot one or two scenes, so that's great for a working parent.
"You just figure it out because you don't have a choice. You have these children depending on you. You prioritise. I had children because I want to be a parent and I want to be there for them, and the time goes by quickly," she said.
"I'm very lucky that I can count on him when I have to leave town for a day or so. I think it's important to have grandparents be close to the children.
