    Default Single MOMS and Child Care!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Advice Needed.

    I have just recently made the decision to go ahead and start dancing. My question for you women who maybe going through or have been through the same thing as I am. I have a small child age 4, who I am concerned about child care at the late hours of the evening. Where do you take your children while working the later shifts. Do you have a nanny? Someone you trust/family member? Do you pick your child up after you get off at the wee hours of the morning from the sitter? This is my only hurdle. I have been thinking about the 24/7 daycare but a litte weary of them. I am very particular about who and when in terms of child care!! This is my only hurdle, but am ready to start A.S.A.P!

    Still working on getting the body right (toning), but I think I am good to go..

    Thanks in advance ladies!

    Here's what I've done when husband is deployed:

    I have hired an overnight sitter for Thursday Friday and Saturday. I paid her $100-150. She watched my kid from 645pm til 10am and got 100 dollars for all three nights total. If I couldnt make it by 10am I'd pay her more (thus the $150).

    I've also had family members watch my daughter for free. I have also had stripper friends with kids watch my daughter in nights I worked and I watched her kid on nights she worked. We'd alternate weekends.

    ^I did something very similar before I started living with my (now) husband (was a single mom when we started dating). My coworker had a live in nanny, so I would drop my daughter off at her house from 6pm to 8am about 5 times a week for 100 dollars per week base pay plus 20-40 dollars (depending on what I made) in tips per night to stay on her good side, lol.

    I live with my sister so she stays home the nights that I work...then she takes my girl to nursery in the morning and I go and pick her up as soon as I wake up.
