Teaching and Childminding part time
Hi
I'd really appreciate some advice from people on here. I'm training to become a childminder at the moment, so am just in the process of starting out. Currently I'm a teacher and work three days a week having reduced my hours after becoming a mummy myself just over a year ago. I love my job as a teacher but don't feel that I could do the job five days a week and spend the time that I want with my daughter. So, I would like to become a childminder but don't want to give up my job as a teacher right away and was hoping to childmind on the two days that I'm not in school. I realise that I'm limiting my potential mindees as I'm only offering two days but would really like to give it a go. Does anyone else do this? How is it working out? I'd really like to hear people's experiences.
Thanks :)
