I work as a home care for the local authority. I get £8.90 an hour with enhancments for working after a certain time at night and the weekends. I get 27 days holiday a year and a final pension salarey scheme.Im only (24) but had my job since i was 18. I couldnt or would not for that matter do anything else for a job. It is rewarding and i can have a laugh but still be serious with my service users.I have learned a lot for example how to make bros as a service user asked for this for his tea one night and he showed me. So i guess you could say the job is the benefit mixing with different people from all walks of lives.0

Im 34 married and got 3 kids, I am self employed as a registered childminder, i get £3 an hour per child and can have 3 fulltime and 2 holidays and after school, in an ideal world being full can be a good wage
Dh is self employed but is doing very poor this year as his work is fly tying so it seems this year people have cut back on their spending on hobbies
I save on my childcare but downside is long hours, lots of paperwork and extra training at evenings and weekends
The best bit is because i am on a low wage i am able to funding through ou for my foundation degree
I too am a registered childminder - hourly rate is £3.50 ph but I only have one child all day one day a week and come Nov will be giving wrap around to a girl for 2.5 hours a day. Only saving grace is she's no longer under EYFS so no extra unpaid work on that one.
Need some more mindees......just don't seem to be any aboutI have a gift for enraging people, but if I ever bore you it'll be with a knifeLouise Brooks
