Infant Care

Im a single mother & I had 1 child, turning 6 month.. & my mum which she's ill & shes not working, help me out to takecare of my daughter. too much conflicts at home. not in good terms with my half brother n sister in law. Alot of thought because i need to work to support myself, my baby n my mum. Its very hard & struggle when theres no one supporting me even living in the same house. My mum is not that strong anymore to takecare of my daughter which she's slowly growing. shes really need some rest for herself already. any suggestion the easiers way to apply infant care? im turning 20years old this year, so its kind of impossible to have my own room or house. i hope i get some advices from anyone. much appreciated ☺?

Like what Billie shared, you can put your daughter at infantcare from as early as 2 months old - here's a useful guide that would help in finding a suitable infantcare centre near you! https://www.dearlittleones.com/single-post/2018/02/15/How-to-Choose-an-InfantChildcare-Centre Other than that, you can look into family service centres and social workers if you need help in other areas - just locate the nearest FSC to you and let them know about your situation. If you're working, you are eligible for a working mum subsidy under the childcare - generally the government ones like Sparkletots are cheaper, my son is in full day childcare now for as low as $30.40/month because we have maximum subsidy due to our family situation (am also a single mum, delivered when I was 19 years old - working freelance with little income).
