SAHM

Single Mums who stay at home, how are we making money? I’m due to go back to work in January and I will be completely honest, I don’t want to go back and it’s not looking like I will. But now finances are on my mind. I get no help from my son’s dad so it’s really me bringing in the money.

I work full time but WFH most of the time since the pandemic so after mat leave I'm doing that.

I've reduced my hours to 4 days a week. As much as I'd like to stay home with my little girl, it's just not feasable for us.

I personally get help from baby’s dad and universal credit. But my mum has a 18 month old. She started selling fragrances candles and stuff like that from home? Lots of companies out there. I did Darceys for a bit but didn’t have enough time to get it up and running but if that’s something your interested in there are fb groups to help

My other half works full time and I’m a SAHM, we get universal credit which tops us up every month x

I'd love to be a SAHM but it just isn't feasible at the moment, so I've reduced my working days to 4 days a week so I get a long weekend with my baby. I'd love to know if any jobs where i could be a sahm though x

My mum became a child minder while we were small. It was perfect for raising us and also still earning. I’m not sure you can just become one as easy any more as now ofsted are involved, but it’s something to work to and pays well ? X
