I am a Mom of 2 little ones & expecting another one anyday now. I live in Canada & because of nightmare experience with ex-husband I am on social assistance, dealing through the end of a bankruptcy he imposed on me & struggling with self-worth. I would really love to be able to stay home to care for my children [I have no one to help me with childcare, especially with new baby on the way, I'm really stuck] & I want so badly to earn a fair income to support my children so that I can stand on my own 2 feet. Can anyone help with realistic suggestions that apply to Canadian's? Thank you~*

If you live in a city you can check into low cost housing for starters. As for income,I have no idea. Hope the bankuruptcy is amlost over for you having that out of the way will help ith stress matters. Sorry can't help you more.

i babysite other kids, and i charge much lower than daycares.
I make between 550$-1000$/month. And my kids get the advantage of socializing with other kids.

i'm from canada!! try looking into driving a school bus...you can bring the kids (and the new baby) also look for secret shopper jobs. i just got one and it's basically whenever a company calls. it's not the steadiest job but at least there is money coming in. www.secretshopper.net like karine said, babysitting other kids is a great idea! my mom did that while we were growing up and we loved having her with us all day
