I understand about your husband and money....mine is SO like this but is getting better (he was raised that money is #1 in life above all else). How are you advertising?
Thank you. I'm advertising on Kijiji, here, flyers, a bunch of random childcare websites. I have also spent all afternoon looking at the help wanted ads on kijiji and calling them. They never turn out to be anything good but we'll see. Mys husband told me to go get a full time job and we'll put our son in care, but I can't. And I think this is the hardest part. This job isn't a choice for me. It's the ONLY alternative to staying home with my son, apart from being a VERY poor stay at home mom lol
