I’ve been a sahm for almost 7 years, two children 6&3. I’ve done a small amount of part time work in those years. I am degree educated but have done nothing with it.
I’ve really enjoyed being home with my children. I kind of shut off any ideas / dreams about my career when I had kids.
Now, we are living with not a huge amount of money. Comfortable (as in not using food banks) but don’t really have any money spare. We own our own home with no mortgage, so no worries about roof over head.
So given that, I have been looking at getting a job and have secured an opportunity for an on job training position in a very up and coming sector. But it would be full time. I feel a great sense of guilt about not being there for my children (as I’m sure a lot of mums and dads do) so in just looking for some inspiring career after kids stories and reassurance it will be ok!
