After having to give up my job when my maternity leave finished, I have struggled to find a new one. I was actually offered a full-time role last year, but didn't take it as it involved alot of overseas travel and my DD was not even 1 year old. Luckily we have savings which have kept us going but now I really need to be earning again.
I have now accepted a 3 month consultancy - a role which i am genuinely excited about. However, it includes a 2-week trip overseas. I am dreading leaving DD who will be 20 months old. I know she will be OK with her Dad and childminder, but it still makes me feel really sad and upset to think about it.
Anyone else who has travelled for long work trips with young kids? Tell me how you managed....
