My children are easily old enough to be left alone but expensive too. I’m also trying to save for something.

I was considering looking into working weekends but ideally would like it to be something not awful - any ideas?

A cafe that serves breakfast? There's a farm shop near us that looks a lovely place to work.

Depends on your view of what is ‘awful’, I work most Saturdays in retail, I love it, it’s a lovely shop, we have very pleasant customers, I am ‘in charge’ so have autonomy .... but lots of people consider retail ‘awful’.

Do you work Monday to Friday already? What do you do as your main job?

Supermarket work would be good for weekend work

Yes, I work Monday to Fridays. It’s work with children so I was wondering about something care based. I don’t think I want to work with elderly people though.

Babysitting can be very well paid, and if you get the right family it can be quite relaxed... ie; if they stay in bed & you can watch tv or read. Lots of people would appreciate a more mature babysitter who has experience with children.

Look into respite care, a friend of mine has a child with SN & she is entitled to a respite career for 4 hours, involves taking the child out swimming, for lunch etc.
