Trying to find a good baby sitter/nanny is HARD! Help! Looking for one in the Doraville, Norcross, Tucker, Duluth area.

I want to homeschool my daughter. She starts kindergarten this year but I just don’t want her to go to school. I want to homeschool her but her father says no because she’s not gonna be able to socialize and blah blah blah. Anyone homeschools/homeschooled their kindergartner?

Hi everyone. I have a question about universal credit and childcare cost. How does it work? My baby is starting with a childminder end of April and I have to pay £700 upfront cost first then she said I can declare it back from universal credit.

Hi everyone, I'm wondering how I apply for the 15 hours free childcare for my daughter? She will be 9 months in September! I'm located in Paisley

We've lost our tax free childcare and funded hours because my partner isn't working, he was made redundant and hasn't managed to secure work. I am so upset and a bit broken at how much its going to cost with only 1 income. Has anyone been in this position.

My daughter will get 30h free from april and we just received the invoice its still £100.. they do spread out the hours over all year but she goes in 2 days - 20h a week is this looking right? I dont understand i thought we will stop paying..

Any daycare recommendations in north Bergen, Guttenberg or union city? With camera ? Affordable and quality

He will be going 5 days a week full time 8 hour days .. I’m very nervous he was with me 24/7 . Any advice to help him transition? Anything helped you as the momma? Do you have kids in daycare if so how old were they and did they enjoy it ? Thank you so much I’ve been a mess and he didn’t start yet ! 😢😭Haha.

How am I supposed to find a full-time job and have a spot lined up at a daycare simultaneously? No one answers me or there's no opening so I can't work full time if I can't get her in haha

My LB is starting his settling in sessions for nursery soon. To say I'm nervous would be a huge understatement. I'd love some advise from mums who have done this, is there anything you did that you think helped settle your little one into nursery?

Hey! I'm moving to Baildon in a few months (hopefully) and wondered if anyone has any recommendations for things to do with 1yr old. My little girls 13 months currently. Also any nursery recommendations would be great x

I’m just feeling really proud and happy right now and felt like I needed to tell someone. My goal was to pay off my student loan before baby gets here, I have officially completed that goal! I’m going to be a STAHM and knowing that my debt won’t fall onto my husband when my income stops is such a relief to me. 😊😊😊

Do you think it's better to do 3 days in a row or 3 days split up through the week? I can see pros and cons to both.

Hey mamas! Kendamil is currently having a storage from where I live. So I had no choice but to switch to Bobbie gentle. My girl was taking kendamil goat so I figured I switched her to Bobbie gentle. So far she isn’t burping after her feeding but she instantly knocks out.. has anybody tried Bobbie gentle? And how di...

I'm trying to decide what days to put my baby in nursery (I won't have a job to begin with so fairly flexible). Would 3 days in a row be better or split the days up throughout the week? I feel there are pros and cons to both options.

Anyone tried these two and I wonder what the differences are? ( I know they’re probably the same due to regulations)

Trump just fired off an Executive order removing the entire dept. of education.

What’s the difference between Tax-Free Childcare and Free Childcare For Working Parents? I’m so confused. Xx

I feel like our weekly food shop has got so expensive now baby is having 3 meals a day. What is everyone spending for a family of 3 each week? Any tips to keep costs down?

Anyone in Tennessee homeschooling? If so can you let me know how you financially afford it? I want to home school my son and have another on the way. I am scared to go for homeschooling because I don’t know if my husband can support that plus all the bills on his own.
