I need a job but finding one that doesn't require weekends is almost impossible.  There are no day cares in my area that watch kids on the weekend so that is another delima.
It was hard to come up with things to talk about since this was a previous problem.
I think it works well, and is quick!
Hello there, how is life treating you at the moment?

I like to listen to people's problems. I am training to be a counsellor. What would you like to talk about?

That's a unique interest. How much longer do you have before you are a counsellor?

Do you have any kids?

No I don't. I am here specifically to help you with problems that you might be facing at the moment. Do you have any problems at work, for instance?

I have a problem with finding work that doesn't need me to work on the weekend.

Ah I hear you there! Some employers are so inconsiderate; they expect us to drop everything and work at any time of any day.
assistant

I wouldn't mind it if I had local daycares that were opened on the weekend.

Ah, so I hear you saying that one of the things that you are struggling with is finding affordable childcare?
assistant
Reflection of feelings
Isn't the affordable part but finding a daycare open on the weekend at all. I don't want a private person. I would feel more comfortable with a daycare setting.

What are your objections against a private person? Is it that you feel you could not trust them? Do you have any family members who could help?
assistant
Question
I have no family that can help. Yes, its me not trusting some random person. In a daycare their cameras and others being around makes me feel more comfortable.
user

Could someone come to your home perhaps? You could set up your own cameras there. And you could make sure to get someone with excellent references

You might be able to find good advice on local parenting forums. There must be other people there who are in the same situation.

Where would I find a local parenting forums? I'm not very tech savy so I'm lost on all of that.
