[quote=Anonymous]OP, now would be the time to ask your family for money if they have money. Or, a place to stay. Unless they exact a large emotional price for asking (which in my family may have happened.) Can you rent a room in a house with another single mom? Go to food pantries near you. See if you qualify for clothes and assistance from your county. In MoCo there is the Interfaith Clothing Center, but I do think you need a referral. There may be something similar where you are living or churches which provide a similar service. Look into babysitting and petsitting/walking as a way to make money while being able to keep your kids with you and not pay for day care until you get a higher paying job. If you can't do this, can you get a job at some place like Starbucks or Costco that might have more benefits? The idea about volunteering at the nonprofit daycares and preschools is good. [/quote]
