I do not know if you are interested in school or not but I just turned 21 not too long ago and I have an 18 month old son..I am located in St. Louis, Missouri and will be attending UMSL...They have a great program for single moms where they have a daycare oncampus and oncampus 2 bedroom apartments for moms and their little ones..it is a great way to get out of the parents house and on your two feet but still with a lot of help..as long as you are a part time student you can live in the campus apartments which are 5940 a year with utilites and everything included..its written off like a dorm is and can be covered by financial aid....I don't currently have a job but I will be doing federal work study and internships while my son is in daycare..they work with your schedule and situation..just a tip...
