Job Elimination

Since yo have the Hotel background..utilize it.
They offer several front desk part time opportunities.
The airlines may be another place to try..F/A can work 1 week and have 3 off... Ticket agents have the ability to work as much or little as possible using shift changes. They have alot of flexibilty as well as hotel agents.
You can then have time with the kids and thought the salary may not pay what you were looking for..the time with your kids is priceless.
TAKE ADVANTAGE of staying home and working p/t if you can.
It is soo rewarding to be able to have that time with kids!
Im so glad I did!

My kids are older than yours so I looked at the schools. I really wanted to be at home when they were home and still do something. I started volunteering at their school since my youngest is now in school all day. I started subbing and networked with people at school. I eventually got a job as a teacher's aide. It doesn't pay a ton but it is significantly more than all the other part time jobs I looked into. The best part is that I'm home when my kiddos are home. It is not for everyone though. I love little kids so it is really fun for me. Good luck!

I vote for finding a way to spend time with the kiddos. Since you have worked only in hotel field it would make sense to hang in there with some other job in a hotel and chalk it up to waiting time. You never know when you might get another event planner. You won't however ever get back that time with the children.

Glad to read that you are so upbeat about it. Look into substitute teaching and you can call your own hours. Good luck.
