When I first started in minding I had this exact scenario (without the additional job to supplement income) I procrastinated and worried about taking on part hours for this first contract and in the end I decided to just go for it.
In 3 years I have never had the enquiry for a full time placement, I now have 23 kids on my books 7 of which are in the early years and 3 of those are accredited. All their hours have slotted in around each others hours with the help of a variation here and there. It just works out .
I now take every enquiry on a first come first served basis.
