I'm doing the LTW to raise five kids from baby to teen on one of my saves. I took a break to rebuild the town however and plan to continue it after.
So far the family is the parents, a fairy, Derek, and human, Rosalie; plus Rosalie's sister Juliette, then the kids: The family heir, Eduardo, who is human (currently a toddler, who's completely trained in walk, talk and potty); the twins, Lacey, who is a fairy, and Willow, who is human (toddlers, neither are trained in their skills yet as far as I know); and the newborn who's name I already forgot, who is human. I still need one more for the LTW and it's already a handful and many days of my sims having sleepness nights. Right now my sims have the perfect jobs for this though: singer, artist and private-I. Derek just recently switched from the theater music career to the Showtime Singer career. (My fault for that: I demolished the theater to rebuild Mirabello Plaza. It will return in a new location soon.)
So yes, it is possible. I recommend the sims have jobs that don't require them constantly being on the job in rabbitholes (example: Singer, Magician, Acrobat, Self-employed jobs like Artist or Author; Private Investigator, Ghost Hunter, Stylist, Architect, maybe Firefighter or Medical but medical results in too many late night emergency calls on already sleepless nights. Might be best to switch to that if the kids are older and don't require constant care). And like others said, add a sibling or a nanny sim to help out. Even better, save up simoleons to get bonehilda if your sims aren't cowards. Otherwise, if you don't have Supernatural do the maid service and cancel it later on. LOL
Also make sure your house has space so your sims won't get stuck waiting for others to move.
And a big nursery. Or two. Close to the parents' room of course.
