I am so sorry that you are having a hard time. It is hard to be a single mom.

Can someone perhaps babysit for you for free so that you can pick up extra hours or get a second job?

It's best if you can support yourself with the baby on your own, since dad's can't be counted on in many cases.

Perhaps finding a different job or increasing your skills and or education would help as well. Best of luck to you. I have been there and learned that the only person I can always count on is myself. It's a hard lesson but it's the best one I know.
