Hi,
I've recently lost a great part time job that I had for a very long time. I'm finding it hard to find part time work , though I have registered with workingmums.co.uk and www.womenlikeus.org.uk.
my DD is 3 1/2, with a September birthday, so she won't be in reception until Sept 2009. At the moment she has just 3 mornings at a fee paying nursery. she's on the waiting list for a free school nursery.
childcare isn't really the issue so much as how much i would miss her, though.
It seems there are far more full time jobs out there than part time. So I've been interviewing for full time jobs even though I don't really want one. It's nerve wracking really. I am close to getting one of these full time jobs, too. i'm afraid I could be making a huge mistake.
do any of you work full time with a child under 5 years old? do you leave for work at 8 am and get home at 6 pm - giving you only a few precious hours each day + weekends? I really feel like I would miss my daughter if I worked 5 days a week. but maybe it's ok. How do any of you feel about this?
Thanks for any input, advice, etc.
