Help Needed: Job Leads for a Mother and Survivor Starting Over
Posting this on behalf of a friend in Fairfax County who doesn’t use Reddit.
She is a mother of a 2-year-old child and a survivor of domestic abuse. She recently separated from her abuser and is now living independently with her child. She is urgently looking for a job in the Fairfax County/Northern Virginia area so she can become financially independent and support herself and her child.
She recently enrolled her child in daycare with the understanding that she would find employment soon, especially now that her child is old enough to attend daycare. Because of this, she is under quite a bit of time pressure to find a job.
She is open to different types of work, preferably caregiving, childcare, or daycare-related positions. She can work Monday through Friday, but unfortunately cannot work weekends because she needs to be home with her child.
She moved to the U.S. from another country a couple of years ago and has basic English proficiency, so she would ideally need a position that does not require advanced English. She is hardworking, willing to learn, and genuinely eager to work.
If you know of any job openings, employers who may be willing to give her an opportunity, childcare/caregiving positions, please comment or DM me. Any leads, referrals, or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
