Jobs

Where do u work? When did you start to work?
I've been considering getting a job where i get paid to watch someone's child while they work. Has anyone heard of that?
I would want to watch someone around Ethan's age, or a bit older.
Thanks ladies . . .  

I babysit for a WAHM, she is usually shut away in her office...do you mean something like that

yes! it's babysitting or nannying.

I'm a nanny and I make $15 an hour  

Ya I've heard of that. I'm not sure but I think its called baby sitting

So you want to be a nanny?

It's fun, usually okay money. But not everyone lets you bring your child with you either, unless you watch their child in your home.

I'm trying to get back into secretarial work and then going back to school. But jobs are few and far between.

Sorry Ladies I should have better explained LOL
I mean like i get paid by the government lol  
sorry!

babysitting....?

I work overnights at walmart, I started when K was 3 months old. It sucks but its all extra spending money and I still get to be home all day with K

yea.. actually if a mom is on welfare and she has kids she can have someone watch her kid and welfare pays them... and just a regular baby sitter or day care school.. my first job was at babies r us and im now a waitress

Quoting Kelly[♥ Ethan]:“ So fostering a child?”

Ummmm "fostering" ?
I dunno. lol sorry.
Just while their Parent goes to work.

Quoting Maria♥♥:“ Ummmm "fostering" ? I dunno. lol sorry. Just while their Parent goes to work.”

I didn't know there was a welfare program like that.

Fostering is where you're a foster parent to children who have been taken away from theirs and are in the system.

So put an ad in the paper.
If you go with government funding, you will have to go through all the licensing and inspections that daycares do
