6-7 weeks is very early to let a yorkie pup leave its mom. 12 weeks would be good.

I got my yorkie at 14 weeks. I'm a single mom to a 8 year old daughter. I work so I too was worried about where and what my pup would be doing.

Early on, we used an expen. With puppy pads, food bowl, bed, toys and water. He did well this and was very reliable on puppy pads. When he got older say 10 months old, I started crate training. He picked up right away and at 18 months old now, he's completely potty trained minus the few accidents when he's got a tummyache.

I would suggest you get an expen. There are a few examples on the forum of what members have done for their new additions. Goodluck!
