    I'm about to embark on that at the moment. I have 4 children and they are all at school now. I am currently studying at college for my business administration certificate 3 and then I can do more courses as I see fit to build my skills. I have worked and owned my own business before but had a break to raise the kids. I am hoping to get a job in 2007. Good Luck and happy juggling work and home.

    Working for a temp agency will usually get you into the waters quickly, and then once you're working part time it's easier to make the connections and get back into the working world.

  • it takes getting use to. u have to find something that is to ur liking and take it easy because u will be thinking about ur children but they have to learn to deal with things when ur children become independent or for instance when they start school.i hope u understand. just take it easy
