Mary,

Since our CAH son was born I do daycare in our home to cover the extras that we need. I went from working 45 hours a week out of the home to doing this. I love it and I’m always able to get to our son if he needs me. We live close to the school so it’s not a problem. My mom also lives close so if we need to go to the doctor she can come out and watch the daycare kids.

So daycare is an option and you make money but don’t have to pay for daycare yourself. In Ohio you can have 6 kids but that # inclueds any of your own that are under the age of 6. When summer comes I don’t have to count any of my kids over the age of six in my count so I still make a pretty fair amount.

Are you good at the home party thing? My friend just started selling Arbonne and she is doing great. She wants to make extra cash when her husband who works in construction gets laid off during the year. Just put the name in a search and you can find their web site.

 

Good luck, we have all been there.

Jill
