I also need to work so I can save money to move out as we have exceeded our welcome her at my sisters house. I’m not sure how much time we have before we are out out but if I could find a job sooner rather than later, that would be a great help. Sorry to out all of this out there.

    Hello: I am not sure of your skillset. Perhaps a Bookkeeping type of job if you are have a finance background. There is a job section in FairyGodBoss if your want to apply for employment. The direct link is: https://fairygodboss.com/jobs/find?keywords=Staff%20Engineer&location=Savage,%20Minnesota,%20United%20States&lat=44.7617&lng=-93.3432&page=1&jobOpen=false&jobPage=cvshealth%2Fstaff-engineer-android-e9719450d03367a5c59889c9db546b64&filters_remote=0&filters_cmp=&filters_cmp_size=&filters_loc=. There are other places that can be used to apply for employment as well (such as Monster.com and a JOBS tab in LinkedIn). Hope this helps. Note that FGB job postings may be old (was told by another poster).

    Please be aware that if you work from home, you will most likely not be able to care for your daughter at the same time. Most companies expect that you are fully engaged with your work during work hours. If your daughter is young and will need a lot of your attention, working from home is probably just setting yourself up for failure. Many people don't understand this.

    I was able to secure her a spot at a therapy center from 11-5:30 Monday-Friday. Before this she had therapists coming to the him during those hours. I didn’t have to care for her as that is what the therapists were coming for. I just needed to be present in the home bc she’s a minor.

    A mother of two children may be someone navigating the joys and challenges of raising her family while balancing her personal and professional life. There’s a possibility that her experiences could resonate with keith brymer jones children offering glimpses into creativity, growth, and shared moments that shape childhood. It’s also possible that being a mother of two brings unique perspectives on patience, learning, and the small, meaningful routines that define everyday life.
