K.P.
Hi S.,
Having read your previous posting, I am really excited for you at the prospect of you starting ot explore your own interests!
If you are good with children, consider a preschool/daycare position. You will probably need to take a CPR/First Aid course, but those are quick and usually combined into one day.
You could also consider working as a mother's helper for working parents b/c you have experience in managing an household. We were looking high and low for someone who would be willing to do some housework, run errands, light cooking and occassionally pick our son up from daycare. We were willing to pay $25 hour for 2-3 days/week and couldn't find anyone!
Post an add in the local papers, on Craig's List and other service sites. If you were able to help two familys per week, you could make a nice supplemental (and cash) income! Just a thought as someone who would have loved to have help!
