Answer 1

I agree with leaving the kids with "the MIL" I love it how when we talk about our mother in laws.. we say "The"... Lol it shows we like them but not love them.. and to us we dont say "OUR"or "MY" Lol just THE

Answer 2

I wouldnt live my children with you for free.

It doesnt sound safe.

&i love my children, if i needed a break I'd call the MIL!

xo Amber,

Answer 3

look into something like Anglicare. They have respite for parents that have kids with special needs

Answer 4

There is a special group of people who give respite care.  DHS should know how to place a child with you.  Also, hospital social workers might have a group that needs to have someone to watch a child.  The school might know of someone.  Be careful about advertising, because you might get used really badly.

Answer 5

You could apply to do respite care through foster care, one of the other posters said to contact your local hospital social workers, or even centrelink might be able to help with some info for groups you can join to give care to children.

Answer 6

Sure, Would you like me to drop of 7 of my 12 kids, they are all under six!

Troy Maddie & Ava - 6yrs old

Miah  - 4yrs old

Byron - 3yrs old

Blaike & Logan- 13months

Have fun!

I reccomend you start with close friends who obviously trust you, and they will tell their friends, who know they trust them, because they trust you! And the chain grows on!

Hope it works out for you,
