ok so I'm looking for a part time job. Would love to do care work of some description (although I have experience), but anything would do really. Most of the daytime care jobs require own transport (which I don't have), or the hours aren't possible because of DH's working hours.
He works (roughly) 1.30-9pm (getting home at around 9.20pm) usually 5 days a week.
Just seen a job advertised for a Care Assistant NVQ level 2 "preferred" but not as essential. It's at a care home about 7 minutes walk from my house.......but (here's the snag) it's nights - 20-30hrs per week 2/3 nights from 7 between 9.45-7.30am.
I only "need" 5-6hrs sleep a night (usually go to bed around 1.30-2am, and get up around 7.30-8am) and survive quite happily on that - so I could sleep when I got back - and DS2 goes for his sleep from 1am (which DH could him down for) meaning I could sleep until nearly 3pm (if I wanted to).
Does anyone else here work a couple of nights a week - and is it 'do-able'??
