Possible job ?

December 21st, 2007 at 04:42 pm

If it all pans out.
I am signed up to take state paid childcare. But, after months and months, no one has ever responded to my ads. DFS says there really is not a need in this county.
Well, I have been contacted by a 16 year old with a 4 week baby. She wants to go back to school, but has to work 2 nights a week, so she needs childcare for those 2 nights. Her parents are refusing to, because they want her to DROP OUT OF SCHOOL AND STAY HOME LIKE THEY DID!!!! She says she made a mistake, but wants to get her education and even go on to college.
So, if she gets the state to approve to pay for her childcare, I will be watching the baby 2 nights a week. She is working to try and by baby items and put back $10 a week for college. She had been working up until the baby was born also.

    Good luck! I have an interview next week. Maybe we'll both be in new jobs by the New Year! Smile

    That is great. Good for her for wanting to go back to school, and good for you for babysitting 2 nights a week.

    On a side note, I think this is exactly how the government should be helping people who need help. A safe place for her child, she can go to school, make some money and improve her situation. Hopefully, after a few years, she is able to be a contributing member of society.

    IIRC you are a teacher, right? Maybe you can become her mentor?

    She sounds like someone that could really benefit from this program, plus money for you! Good luck!
