• Tomorrow I have an interview for a receptionist job at a local gym,I hope I get it but I have no clue how I am going to manage working (it's only part time but..) and taking care of 2 children.I am going to have to work evenings,nights and weekends so after being up late or all night I will have to get up early with the kiddos.Do any of you have any tips for a SAHM going back to work?I am a little nervous I have only had one other official job in my life and that was in high school and I am 25 yrs. old now!! I know it's sad but true!! So any tips?? Oh and the SC is *drum roll please* Health > Women's Health how is that for a SC!!!

• Answer:

  Organization, structure and lifelines! Make the kid's lunches for school, throw in a load of laundry, pay bills and the rest of our daily chores..do at night after work or in the am before the kids wake up. Make sure you keep this simple & to a minimum so you Do Not burn yourself out. I cannot stress this enough..Simple! Try to clear as much as possible that when you do have the kids in the am & early afternoons you can spend focused quality time with them. Most importantly, if you have a spouse/partner work out a routine/chore schedule to break up the duties & daily responsibilities. Hang up a family planner in a main room of your house for all to see and add of their own so every one is on the same page. Lastly, let your friends, family & trusting neighbors know that you will be going back to work. You will need these lifelines for back-up in case one of your babies gets sick & you can't take off or you have to work late etc.. Good luck! I am very happy to hear someone is going back to work in these tough times!! Lately, I've only been hearing the opposite.
