Ok. So here it goes, sorry soo long. We have been in debt before, but never this bad. We are about 100,000 in cc debt and a huge mortgage. My husband makes a good salary. About 160,000. I am dying to go to work, but with three kids the daycare just wouldn't pay. I am on the hunt

Hi there,
I am mostly a lurker nowadays, but I've been around the board for a while now. I came here in crisis mode myself. I have two kids, my youngest is a preschooler and I didn't want to pay daycare for him in order to bring home a paycheck. I started baby-sitting two siblings in my home, then moved on to get my home daycare license. I am now bringing in decent money to keep our cash flow moving--no more charging. I am able to be home with my kids and I don't have to pay daycare costs. It's working for us! Would you be able to take in even one or two children to baby-sit?
Good luck!
Anne

If you look after a child about the same age, you may find you have more patience, as your child would have a buddy to play with and wouldn't need quite as much attention. When I am watching my nieces, I find it less exhausting if I have 2-3 over instead of just 1.
