So here's a lovely maths example to throw the V's at the government & my boss!

It's going to cost me £45 a day to put Lydia in the same nursery that I work at.

I am on minimum wage at £6.50 an hour, which will pay me £65 a day!

Typically I will be leaving work with £20 a day!

I really don't want to claim any benefits, but I also wouldn't survive without them! 😭😭😢

It's horrid for those who work are always worse off, I'll be the same when I go back to work, having a pay for private childcare as I'm not entitled to anything.. will be looking around £200 a month for my little one 😢

Luckily my ex partner promised to financially support me until I went back to work. But now that I'm back he's quit his job and moved on.

I've had to enter all my details into the benefit calculator and apply for forms to be sent to me 😥 we live in such a vicious world! x

So someone contacted me waiting me to watch her son four days a week for $150/wk. I had to tell her that even if someone worked for $10/hr it only pays for a day and a half in my opinion?

I mean maybe I’d do it for $300? But the $150 I just can’t see if being worth it to me

maddykilgore Another thing to consider too is places that are 30 a day probably have a few kids
boymama523 Wow. In San Diego I used to nanny and would charge $20/hr and made $140/day x5 days
amysbabies I would just politely respond that your rates are $xxx a day/week however they work and that

Am I wrong to be upset? Last night I was running a fever, weak, tired, sore, my left boob feels like it got used as a punching bag. I asked my husband to call out of work today to help me with the kid so I could get some rest. He went to work. I texted him this morning. Part of me thinks I mean. The other part of me thinks I was fine for saying that because he should've stayed home with us.

ekko I see both sides. However, if you both work and him taking off one day isn’t going
2sweetie I’ve never asked my husband to take a day off when I’m sick. I just deal with
boymama523 He gets the choice to call off if he’s overwhelmed or sick. You (all us mommas) don’t.

I'm used to working 20hrs or more a day. So to go from that to a stay at home mom has left me soooooo bored! I need a hobby. Any suggestions?
