[quote=Anonymous]I am a SAHM and I have really enjoyed my time with my children at home but I have always wanted to go back to work eventually. I have been keeping up with my skills, and they are a good match for the DC market and I am not super-worried about finding a job (eventually). However, my field is not very remunerative and if I went back to work now, virtually all my salary would be eaten up with childcare costs, maybe 10K left over? If I wait two years (18 months really) my youngest will be in public kindergarten and that will make a big difference in childcare costs. But we could really, really use the money now. What should I do? I have started looking for part-time work now and would take a part time job if I was offered one, but most jobs in my field seem to be full time.[/quote]
