I just chose to stay home. My two year old is fun to look after. We're gonna "trash truck" today!
Definately go to work if it is necessary - send 3 yr to day care - they learn sooooooooooo much !
Stay at home. You woman have it easy
Depends on the job..
both. work from home
Work if you have to other wise stay home and enjoy the day with your 3 year old. They grow up so fast.
kids are funner then work, but they can`t pay the bills.
If you can afford it I would stay at home. Children are only small once and it's for such a short so I say stay home and enjoy the day. Make lunch together, color and just play...
I have a 3 year old.. and honestly: go to work.
I strongly believe in Quality VS Quantity.
I have friends that stay home (with their kids) and don't do crap! the house is messy, the kids aren't taken care of, and they are glued to their soap operas. This is a classic example of QUANTITY: too much time with the kids = not well taken care of.
My one friend, her son is my sons age (3) and he can maybe say 4 words. "mama, dada, go, bye-bye"
I have friends that work & take their kid to daycare, and their kids are excelling, and pretty well taken care of. The house is cleaner, and they get stuff done. This is because going to work motivates them. This is a classic example of QUALITY: they see the kids less, so in the time they DO see their kids, they make quality time of it.
Of course, you have to consider day care costs, and your hourly wage. I think I'll transition into a stay at home mom after I have 3 kids.. because the cost of daycare.
Don't get me wrong, I'd love to stay home with my son, and sometimes I do! (And I definitely love weekends with him!) .. but I just find it's more beneficial for him to learn at his day school.
If I were you, and you don't need the income because your husband/boyfriend can support you guys, I'd look at a part-time job and part-time daycare, just so you can have some time to yourself and your 3yr old can go learn how to interact with other children.
It's $495 a month for my 3yr old to be in daycare full time. .. That's a chunk of money you could be saving! Good luck in your decision!
It depends on how much money you make and how much the child's father makes.
If you make a ton of money and it would be a tremendous financial burden for you to stay home and not bring home a paycheck then you go to work and hire a sitter.
But if the child's father makes enough to where you can stay home and still have a nice life on his pay only then stay home.
(Of course, this is only considering the financial side of things. There are more personal issues to deal with, too like it's always nicer for the child to have mom home instead of a sitter)
stay at home.
play with the kid
and make fun.
erm ill choose stay at home to spend a bit of time with the baby but then again work you get to make money and spend it on the baby
If you can stay at home, do it. You will be rewarded greatly. Btw, they grow up fast so enjoy this "journey" !
Work from home.
YES! There are legit work at home options…….I looked for 3 years before I found a good one! Learn from my experiences….lol
I’m a stay at home mom of two little girls a 1 year old and a 3 year old. I work about 15-18 hours per week for a National Medical Benefits Company. I have been with the company for 6 months and am now making over $2500 a month! In your first month, depending on how many hours you can work I have seen people make anywhere from $500-$2000. And your income will increase each month because we get paid residual income as well. If I continue on as I am going at the end of the year I will be making $5000 a month. My friend Becky started 2 years before me. She is now making $95,000 a year.
The best part is they have 401(k), direct deposit and a benefits package. In addition, there are no products, no hard selling or pushing, no cold calling and no telemarketing! That was VERY important to me. That and their start up costs were less than $100.
I absolutely love working with them and I can't believe I am making what I am making and in so few hours per week. The neat thing is there are other people on your team that you work with so you are never alone. The support is great but I have made wonderful friends as well. I think that’s important too, especially being at home!
I was a bit apprehensive at first because I know a lot of companies are not legit but this company is the number one National Medical Benefits Company in the US. They are a member of the US Chamber of Commerce which is very impressive. Also they were featured in “The New York Times”, “Wall Street Journal” and the “American Medical Review”. Even “60 Minutes” with Morley Safer did a big special on them!
Even more then all this is they are accepted at over 100,000 retailers nation wide. These are fortune 500 companies like Sears, Target, Walgreens, CVS, Wal-mart and more. These companies would never work with a company that was any thing less then reputable. That made me feel very good about working with them knowing they were accepted at the stores I frequent. Also now of course being with them I get the benefits for free and I saved over $150 on my last visit to the dentist! That’s just a beautiful perk! : - )
When I first started I just felt very safe with them…. that and my friend was already making so much money with them! But at this point I feel a sense of security financially that our family has never had before. That plus LOVING what you do? What could be better?

P.S. If you are looking for a JOB there should be NO cost and I would NEVER pay or encourage anyone to pay money to work FOR someone else. This is a business, an inexpensive home business of your own, where you are your own boss. Of course it does cost some money to start any home business but that does NOT mean you should pay $1000 or $5000 to start a home business. Our start up costs are less then $100 bucks and we get SO much for that. Each month we cover only a very small portion of what it really costs to run our businesses, the company pays the rest for us. Including all of our web sites, training, materials, 401k, direct deposit, medical benefits and more. This company basically makes it possible for you to own your own home business and they foot almost 100% of the bill!!! Without them I never would have been able to afford my own business!
