please no judgement

Iv been studying and doing voluntary work while I use my 15hours childcare for daughter,

Iv got a teaching job and start next week as a single mum, iv been on benefits while I studied to do better for my self and her.

I'm now worrying about full time child care costs, and how I'm going to afford, rent (I'm in council property) bills, and childcare.

Looking for advice off mums who've been in a similar position?? I know the system isn't supposed to make it so your completely worse off but, I just worry about money like any single mum would....

Please don't take this as I want to sit on benefits all my life because I have worked hard to get my self to this point just came a few months earlier than expected as was hoping to do it when she's at full time school.

There will be no judgement here.
