Aibu to think about taking a job

[Persiaclementine]

Got offered senior role to my current job role today, trouble is I'm pregnant and wasnt planning on going back as I wouldnt have been able to aford childcare (all my wages would have been spent on child care.) I have a partner so wouldnt be relying on benefits, and we were planning on relocating to be able to afford a more comfortable life style with me out of work. Anyway job offered is double what I'm currently on and childcare would take about half my wages, so doable. Basically my AIBU to accept job offer and get my 1 year old in childcare? Or AIBU to not accept job offer? Confused.

I think that's the right decision, OP! Good luck and well done xx

Thank fuck for that. Good decision

Don't forget to apply for a tax free childcare account that should help a bit with nursery fees.
Not sure quite how it works as I got childcare vouchers via salary sacrifice but I think for every £8 the government put in £2.
