Help!

Hello everyone, I could really use some ideas right now—hoping for a little light at the end of the tunnel! In May, I was made redundant just two weeks after returning from maternity leave. Luckily, I found a temporary job two months later, but today I learned that they won’t be renewing any contracts, meaning I’ll be out of work in January. On top of that, my partner’s car has a major issue that will cost around €4,000 to fix. We really can’t manage with just one car, especially since we live in a remote area. My car is on finance, so we can’t take out a loan for a second car. I’m feeling pretty desperate for extra income! I plan to start pet sitting, but I’d love to hear any other ideas you might have for earning some money. It’s tough finding cash-in-hand work here in Ireland. I was thinking to sell some hoodies with the wording Mama and the kids names. I have the machine, just done it for myself and for friends. I know that what to do to get some extra money. Thank you so much for any suggestions! I appreciate it as I’m so overwhelmed atm 😞

Starting up a side hustle like hoodies is a great idea! I recently bought an embroidered jumper for my little fella with his name and a bee design and happily paid €35 pounds for it. Side note- I’m in the exact same situation with being made redundant in June whilst out on maternity leave but I’ve heard nothing about it since… are you the same? 😅

If uve the machine can u do the names on hats, scarfs etc? Anything else? Especially for Xmas those would sell. Can u get a stall in a Xmas Market somewhere? Look at all options, contact your bank maybe and explain financial situation. Maybe a page on Facebook mums in Ireland or smth similar can help with more advice
