I'm a mum of 2, one is in school, the other I'm struggling to find and local nurseries with space due to the influx since the free hrs came out. We are struggling massively financially plus have over 4k of debt. We are not eligible for uc or government help.
Does anyone know of any flexible jobs which I can log in as and when I have free time? Eg during my babies naps or of an evening? Anything I can make/buy and sell for profit? I'm literally open to any suggestions that can help me

Can you work when your partner is there for childcare?
There are very few jobs that would give the flexibility you are asking about.1 -
Unfortunately the amount i would work on the weekends wouldn't cover his wage as he's on double time for weekends so we'd be taking a big hit. Weekdays his hours are too long for me to work around0

Possibly something to do with arts and crafts, like jewellery making?

What are your craft skills? I'm just thinking about something you could sell to school parents if you already know them. So things like crocheted bobbles in the school colours or baby gifts/birthday gifts.
I know a few people who've started a hair accessories side hustle and seem to have done well when they hit the local school colours, especially if they already know parents there who are willing to spend a few quid each.0 -
If you can't afford the debts, maybe pop over to the debt free wannabe board for options on how to deal with them.Statement of Affairs (SOA) link: https://www.lemonfool.co.uk/financecalculators/soa.phpFor free, non-judgemental debt advice, try: Stepchange or National Debtline. Beware fee charging companies with similar names.0
