I want to have a comfortable life for me and my daughters. A stable house and a stable home is what I am working towards. I just moved into a private rented property a month ago so next up is starting a job. Once I start work I want to make improvements to the house I'm in now, just add little touches to make it more homely like a sofa, a bed, and a few other bits and bobs.
Before I moved into this property, I didn't have a set address and was sofa surfing for the last two years. I lost the property I was in before then due to rent arrears. Even though I had a job at the time, it wasn't enough to pay what they wanted so I ended up moving out. This has led to a lot of stress in my life. I am used to working and so being out of work is frustrating for me. I get stressed out because I am not where I expected myself to be right now.
I would love to get back into a role as a support worker. I enjoy meeting new people and particularly supporting children and young people. I have worked with children with all disabilities before and want to get back into that field of work. I have also supported elderly people and do enjoy that too. The thing I'm looking forward to the most about getting back into work is the freedom. I have two children who bicker all the time so I am looking forward to having a reason to get out of the house and have new experiences!
