She added: 'As far as TV gigs go, we're both very fortunate – we're aligned in the mornings at the moment, which makes the first half of the day kind of chaotic but it means that we're both home for the afternoon and the evening and bedtime.'
In the interview, Sylvia also said that parenting their two boys, Oscar, five and Henry, four, is a team effort.
She said the family currently enjoys a lot of 'togetherness' and revealed a surprising family secret.
'Pete cooks dinner, I never have to think about dinner,' she said, before joking: 'So if anyone wants to know how I survive as a working mum, that's how: my husband does dinner every night.'
Elsewhere, Sylvia, revealed that she and husband Peter have opened investments for their two boys.
Sylvia, who hosts the finance podcast The Pay Off, said that the couple are putting a little bit away for their children every month to help secure their future.
'This is where the mum guilt comes in when you're skipping out every morning and going to work – you want them to know it's for some greater purpose as well,' she said.
It comes after Sylvia and her husband celebrated their eighth wedding anniversary last month.
The happy couple enjoyed the milestone with a romantic dinner date.
'Our Big Fat Greek Anniversary,' Sylvia captioned a picture she took of their meals from a Sydney restaurant, which she later posted to Instagram.
Meanwhile, Peter, 43, shared an image of his wife wrapping her arm around him as he wrote, '8 with my mate,' alongside a red love heart.
Sylvia also shared a second picture, a black and white snapshot from when the couple first started dating.
In the caption, she wrote: 'Now and then. 7 years married + 2 lovely children - 700 hours of sleep = something to celebrate. Happy anniversary, Peter Stefanovic.'
At the time, many of the couple's friends and family offered their congratulations in the comments.
Peter, who is the brother of Today's Karl Stefanovic, replied simply with a series of love-heart emojis.
Meanwhile, Nine journalist Shelly Horton wrote: 'Congrats you two lovebirds!' followed by love heart emojis.
Another follower wrote: 'The beaming smile says it all. Congratulations. Awesome couple!'
'You both honestly look exactly the same! Lots of love,' one more wrote.
Sylvia and Peter began dating in 2013 after meeting at Nine and were engaged in 2016 while on holiday in France.
They tied the knot at the Ooralba Estate in Kangaroo Valley on April 1, 2017.
In 2020, Sylvia and Peter welcomed their first son, Oscar, in February.
Just eight months later, the TV presenter revealed she was pregnant with her second child, a son, Henry.
