Hi,
I am currently a full time mum, youngest being 2. I would like to go back to work at some point. I always wanted to work with elderly people. I worked in a community centre for old people for 3 weeks in my school work experience and I remember how much I enjoyed it ever since - but this was 25 years a go! I have since became an engineer after uni but now sahm. I like to do something everyday to make a difference to someone's life, I don't mind cleaning, bathing etc.
The problem is that I am a rather shy person, I do try to talk to everyone but sometimes I run out of conversations which can be so awkward! Do you still think I can be one? If so, how did you begin and manage childcare out side of normal hours? We have few local childminders but only do "normal hours".
Thank you in advance!
