hi there

i have a mum and baby school. mums bring their kids and themselves for the class. its 2 hours long and we have a new theme each week. the last half an hour is tea where the moms have tea and cake and the kids have chips and juice and play.
i have class 3 times a week so for the rest of the time i am a professional mom Wink

i love my job because i get to share everything i learn with other moms. they know all about doman and some are on brillkids. you will be surprised at how many moms are not aware of this but many of them believe that their child has a lot of potential. most of them have begun the wonderful journey of teaching.

i love being the professional mom more though

I'm a paramedic.

Just had to stop because of a terrible pain in my back. I have to think of changing my career.

By then I love to spend time home... never thought I would !  rolleyes

its amazing how diverse all our careers are.
quite fascinating!

it must be so cool for all you guys in a field other than education because you then have your career and the knowledge about that field to pass down.

I am an elementary school teacher.  I used to teach in a low-income school before my maternity leave.  Most of the students come to school with no knowledge of the english written language.  Athough I feel that it is sad, I also can understand why the parents hadn't taught their children much.  It is because these parents work 12-14 hour days in a factory barely making anything to servive.  If they even see their kids they are just way too tired to teach.  Anyhow, I am off topic and rambling. 

Okay, I am an educator and a full time mommy now.  big grin

I'm just a mom, but my husband is a software engineer, and he makes a good living for us. I'm glad that I dodn't have to work because then I just wouldn't have the time to do all this teaching.

I am at stay at home mum right now and looking to go back to work as a Marketing Manager part time when my son is 18months. Hubby is a Motorcycle Purchasing Manager. No educational teaching background with either of us, just a love of reading.

By education, I am a therapist.  However, I have done everything from waitressing, being a nanny, a mental health counselor, an activity director at a retirement home--which included managing a small store and beauty salon-- to teaching elementary art, just to name a few (but like alot of people, I've been working since I was 14)!  I have enjoyed aspects of all my jobs... but my favorite has been helping in the rearing of the two children for whom I served as nanny and being a stay-at-home mom to my daughter.  Although, what a misnomer that is... what mom gets to actually stay at home?!  We are on the go constantly!  Oh yeah... and being a wife... my grandmother assures me that, marriage counts as work too!

I was a lawyer, actually quit before I got pregnant as wasn't enjoying it and felt that I needed a break. But now, I realise being a stay-at-home-mum is really hard and my old job seems like a walk in the park!  LOL 

No immediate plans to go back to work though as combining full time work with being a mum is just going to be completely unmanageable and my stress level is going to shoot through the roof. Although will probably return to work in another 6 month to 1 year, if we don't get another baby that is!  big grin

I was a SAHM on maternity leave up until last week where I returned to work purely for finacial reasons. When I am not being a mummycator I work for the Australian Governement, helping adminstor a programme called the PBS (Pharmeceutical Benefit Scheme). It is where Dr's ring up for medication for their patients' thier patients have to meet a set criteria to have the medication, when the medication is approved it reduces the cost to the patient, to either $5 for pensioners and up to $30 for non-pensioners. It helps many peope as alot of the meds can cost up to $16000,(high end most cost between 70-500 dollars) so the rest of the cost is covered by the government.

Prior to having my DD i was also studying my degree in Commerce but thinking of maybe doing something else now.
