I AM KIND OF IN THE SAME SITUATION. I AM 21 AND AM GETTING MARRIED NEXT MONTH. I DON'T HAVE A JOB AND HAVEN'T FOR 2 MONTHS NOW. I DON'T KNOW HOW I WILL PAY FOR EVERYTHING AT THE WEDDING BUT THANKFULLY, I DO HAVE THE MAJORITY OF THINGS PAID FOR.
I COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND WHERE YOUR STRESS AND FRUSTRATIONS ARE COMING FROM. GOOD LUCK WITH THE JOB HUNT AND I HOPE YOU FIND SOMETHING SOON.
MAYBE YOU COULD TRY WORKING AT A DAYCARE OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

i forgot a little piece of info and i didn't know how to email on this.

KEEP THE FAITH. I JUST RECEIVED A CALL TODAY THAT I AM GOING TO WORK ON MONDAY. LEAVE THINGS UP TO GOD AND PRAISE HIM. AND REMEMBER...HE NEVER GIVES YOU MORE THAN YOU CAN HANDLE. I WILL KEEP YOU IN MY PRAYERS. I HOPE THAT THINGS TURN AROUND FOR YOU REAL SOON. GOOD LUCK AND LIKE I SAID "KEEP THE FAITH"

You are having a problem, and I do feel sorry for you. The best thing for you here, first, to take a look at what all you have right now, instead of what you dont have. First step towards solving the problem would be to focus on your job situation. In terms of qualification / experience for a job, you have a good experience as a nanny (whether live in / or live out), you have experience in old age care, baby sitting and handling new born babies. Now isnt that great. Okay, so how much have you tried so far ? Ever thought of doing it on your own, make your own team perhaps, work on an hourly basis, or wouldnt you know agencies, companies, who do hire people in this category ? Have you registered with them ? I wouldnt know what are the formalities you have to go through for having a bank account (where you stay, that is), and doing business online, but wouldnt a freind or someone help you with their credit card, and you could pay them back once you start having your own income ? Also, there are several sites, websites, where you could put in an advert, with your contact address/telephone, and probably you could get some enquiries through that too. Post your ad, well worded, whenever you find a good site where people from your area writes in too. I am sure there are places where you could post flyers, offering your services. These are a few options. But to do all of the above, like someone said here, you are on your own two feet, take it from there. Hope, courage, and the strength to keep moving and never give up will help you a lot during this time. Keep searching, there should be a door that will open up and your life could change forever. Never fall into the category of people who say '''oh i have tried this, but its impossible'', think of all the experience that you have and work on that. You have experience, and you know you do what you do really well. So work on it, check on every possible thing you could do, not dread over what you are in right now. And this will pass too, I am sure.

I know this is not a time or probably you wouldnt even feel like it, but try and read some inspirational stuff on the net. Its not a practical solution to what you need right now, It helps when you really really feel low.

And just for you - '''Winning isn't everything, but wanting to win is". and "To find what you seek in the road of life, the best proverb of all is that which says: "Leave no stone unturned."

good luck
