if you can't afford it stay at home and have a fab time looking after your children. being a mum should be valued

i stayed at home with mine until my son was 4 1/2 and dd was 1 1/2 and then due to our financial situation i had to go back, got a job and paid all my wages over for childcare in the hols.

luckily i then got a job as a science tech in a school (was a tech before kids but in industry) and thats the job i still do now ds is almost 16 and dd is nearly 13. i now work in the school they go to and its lovely and i'm so lucky to have a job i walk to, that i love and that matches the kids so i have time with them

You know what i have twin boys also, mine are 5 in september and for the past 4.5 years i've not been able to have what i call a proper job, i had a part time cleaning job in the mornings before partner goes work, just for the sanity really and to meet other people cos i hate being stuck in home all the time, i need a break also. I have however just got myself a part time job 4 a/noons a week 1-6pm working at next directory, this way my kids will be in childcare, but government fund it as they are 4 only 12.5 hours tho. My partner works only 30 hours and i'll be working 20, you will probably find that if you don't workin the earlier days you will be better off as the tax credits you will recieve will be higher anyway, but i don't kno your situation whether you're buying ur house etc. We are renting so at the start we got help from the local housing benefits, so just really had to pay bills, but since artner went to 30 hours we have to now pay full rent plus the bills. Its entirely upto you what u try to do, u gotta weigh it up and see whats the best option right now.
