I have been having issues with my babysitter (who is also my stepsister) and it's reaching a breaking point. We live in a small town and at first, having her watch my daughter went great. Now as time goes on she makes more and more excuses of why she is unable to watch her some days. I had an interview last week that she knew about 3 weeks in advance... she flaked at the last minute because her bf wanted her to go do some stuff for him. They go out of town pretty often and then today, after a 3 day weekend, she texts me at the last minute to let me know that she has been sick the last few days and can't watch my daughter today so I had to call in sick to work. I feel like she isn't taking things serious and now she is jeopardizing MY JOB with her excuses. So today I called around and can't find ANY daycare openings in our small town!!! I feel stuck and screwed. Does anyone have any suggestions that I may not have thought of already???? Any help is appreciated! Thank you ladies!

Could you switch your shift to different times and work out with a friend or someone you trust to watch her?
@bbanna34.hj, not anyone reliable and available. My other family here is seriously messed up and not someone I will have watch my child. And my friends here almost all work at the same time that I do so they can't do it. And the best answer I got from any day care place was that they MIGHT have an opening in December.
Do you have any body else in town that you know.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
My sweet baby girl gained her angel wings this morning. She was my best friend, my true love my everything. She was so happy and beautiful, I'm struggling to say good bye. Sleep tight princess, mummy and daddy love you very very much ❤️
A Statement from Mom.Life:
Hey everyone!
Last night, a new user began messaging our moms asking for private pictures of toddlers and young children. This is obviously unacceptable behavior, and the account was banned immediately. Although thankfully extremely rare on Mom.Life, several users were understandably upset by this, so we wanted to clarify a few things:
First off, Mom.Life has an absolute zero tolerance policy for child abuse and those who would prey on children. We strive to ...
@bbanna34.hj, no. At this job unfortunately there are no other shifts. I work the whole time that we are open all week. Closed weekends. Which normally would make daycare very easy. There just aren't any open slots at any of the daycares I have checked at. Rumor is that there is a new one opening, but no date yet or anything and I haven't been able to get contact info for the people running it.
