Jobs postpartum

Has anyone else not gone to uni or anything but still managed to secure a stable income after having a baby? I am looking for a good job however, I am really worried as I haven’t gone to uni or gone down a secure career path. For context, I am 7 months postpartum and am fast approaching the end of my maternity leave. I don’t want to go back into the work that I am currently in as I won’t have the money for nursery and I don’t have much help. I have done hospitality jobs and retail but I fear this isn’t fit or right while juggling mum life. I honestly don’t know what to do and if I am honest, I am really worried. I need to hear some positivity. I feel like I have honestly messed my life up and don’t want to financially struggle as my baby doesn’t deserve that.

I’m kinda in the same boat, except I do have my bachelors but in this job market, that means nothing now lol. I make enough to pay for bills/daycare but don’t make enough to live on my own so we stay with family. I just pray & keep applying to jobs & continue to have faith that God will open one of the doors for me
