Be honest, spontaneous application for a part time job

[LivingChess]

Would I have a chance? I mean, obviously there's the whole me factor (who seems to be quite unemployable right now), but in general.
I have a child with SN (who went awol from school this morning, but that's a whole other story, he was there but hiding.) and so no childcare for him during the holidays, after or before school etc.

DH can now work from home once a week.
MIL is moving to a town 15 mins away at the beginning of the new year. She could cover one day a week in the holidays, but no more.

So I could potentially work two days a week, but it would have to fit around when DH is home and when the Dc are in school. And of course, if DS starts school refusing, which is becoming more and more borderline right now, and I've no idea what will happen when he transfers to secondary next year...

Would anyone even consider me as employable based on that?

Depends what the job is? What are you qualified in? Can you look for task-based jobs that don’t have set hours (something like data entry where you say have to complete x number of entries in a week). Then you could work from home and fit the hours to suit?

It depends what you want. I work from home on a zero hours contract, the downside being it's a zero hours contract so no security and periods of no work (I catch up on housework), the upside is I can pick the hours I want to work with shifts available seven days a week 8am- 9pm.
