Dilemma, SAHM or back to work

[Chuggachuggatoottoot]

Ok, so I've been a SAHM for some time now and have done bits of volunteering in between.
I need something but trying to find a part time job that fits in with school hours etc is just too hard and the types of jobs are just not really for me.
I don't need to work, I'm very fortunate in that respect.
I don't however have any family around to help. Nobody.
Any childcare has to be paid for.
My eldest doesn't really want to go to after school clubs 3 times a week.
My youngest would be ok at nursery.
It just pulls at my heart strings cos I don't need to get a job.
What should I do?
I've volunteered but am not really finding anything that I enjoy enough. What if I get a job in something I've done before but it ends up not working out and I end up wishing I was there with my kids.
I just don't know what to do for the best.

Or school admin? Have to say, those jobs seem to be like gold dust, so you might have better luck casting the net wider. Like I say, hospital admin may offer as much flexibility as schools, and there will be less competition because other mums might not think of trying there

I've not read the whole thread, but I think if I was in your position I'd think about the things I love doing and work towards having a job doing these things. So for me, my passions are yoga, dogs, health and well-being. So if I didn't need to do a job that sucks the lie out of me to pay the bills to work, I'd use the time now to train to be a yoga teacher, a holistic therapist or a dog groomer.

What things do you really enjoy doing?
