[quote=Anonymous]I’ve been a single mom since my 11 year old was 1. You make time for what’s important to you. If you meet someone you like, you will figure out a way to spend time with them, and balance that with motherhood. Reliable babysitters are a must. You need at least 3 on your list. My parents are available if I need overnight care, for the very occasional weekend trip. Otherwise I typically employ high school and college girls in the nhood. Nextdoor app is great for finding good sitters. I’ve also found babysitters from my child’s daycare when he was younger. There’s also a nearby church that offers Friday night babysitting for $10 for 4 hours, called a Parents Nite Out. The local YMCA also offers that sometimes. It’s important to make time for yourself. Hire a sitter and go on a date periodically, or go hang with girlfriends. That adult time and connection is essential.[/quote]
