The first thing that popped into my head was childminding. Not sure how long training is though x

Im thinking of seeing if yherr is a civilian post in police rather than as an officer. I was 23 when I joined an don't need all the crap that comes with it but I know how things work within the system whi h would be beneficial. Im tained in interviews etc and they do civilian posts in that or statement taking.

I was thinking hair extensions and nails course?

I like a regular income tho not sporadically! X

Have you looked at something like ACN, a bit like avon but for utilities (gas and electricity, mobile phone etc). Unlike avon though once someone has signed up to a service via your website you continue to get a small percentage of cashback from every bill they pay. It takes a while to build up though but worth thinking about?

Childminding is very difficult to get into now (there is lots of training and it is also pretty costly)

Also if you have a young child then you can only have 1 more so it isn't financially viable to be honest. With your taxes you are effectively childminding for a pittance.

It can be a very good profession when your kids are a bit older though and I am going to look into it.

The whole adult to child ratio is changing now. I was speaking to a childminder the other day about it and they have relaxed the rules now on how many children u can look after. I am not sure by how much though x

The smae institute do a foot health practitioner course in maidenhead. It's costly though. Theory is done by distance learning and practical is 2 weeks at their clinic.
