DLA/ nursery

If you claim DLA are you still expected to work to claim the free 15 nursery hours or the 85% on universal credit? I have just recently applied for DLA for my daughter and I’m currently trying to find a job within nursery hours but until I have found one she can’t start nursery, so I’m just wondering if she gets accepted for DLA will it matter if I’m working or not? Or is there any other help out there which support with nursery fees?

Sorry if this is a silly question I am new to all of this
TIA X

In need of friends

I truly need friends to talk, vent and chat with whether it be text call or FaceTime I feel so alone even though I have people around me and my partner isn’t really being a partner in this time

Lost friends since being a mum

Good morning! Can anyone relate to this!

My two friends and me have always been close since our early teens. I’m the first to have a baby.

One friend has big house, career and boyfriend

Other out of a long term relationship and being single having fun etc

Before baby we would all hang at my
Apartment, chat eat and just have
Fun.

Now I don’t even get a text to ask how my baby is, how I am. I really thought they would be awesome aunties. But honestly they don’t care.

They meet up a lot to do cool things, which I can’t be upset about as I can’t as I have my baby.

I don’t know I feel sad about it.

Am I over reacting?

Work + baby?

Hi everyone I’m a struggling mom needing to go back to work but trying to avoid sending my baby to daycare I’m desperately trying to find work I can do with my baby as I won’t have any one I trust to babysit. If anyone knows anything please reach out. I just want my baby to be safe but living in this economy with one income is just impossible. Please fellow moms im begging for anything!

Advice

Ok so I had this friend and she would always talk about how it was so embarrassing to post your face on tinder or any kind of dating/friendship platform because it makes you look desperate. This has stuck with me soo much over the years, I always post anonymously. I really want a friend just 1 friend that I can go out n do stuff with and we just click but I refuse to post my face on any friendship platform, also because I might see someone I know and I literally HATE the idea of that. I feel so stuck, because I’m not the type of person to go out a lot I go to work and come home and when I do go out to parks and stuff there’s literally never any moms that try to strike up conversation. I really wanna get on bumble bff to try it out but it makes it to where you have to post your face. PLEASEEE any advice would help. I get bumble bff go through the people and then I delete it within like 5 minutes because I see someone I know.
