Well, we are a family of 5 looking to get OUT of Florida. We are originally from NJ but don't want to go back up there. We are going to try and find a rental house b/c we have a dog and it seems most apartments either don't allow dogs or only allow tiny dogs. We are looking into the job market up there. I have always been in healthcare, I have worked as an EMT, a CNA and I am currently a medical assistant student. I attend school online so we can move before I finish. My husband has done plumbing work, janitorial and maintenance. Any recommendations for us when it comes to jobs. Good places to work, bad places to work. Any help on where to get started would help. We would like to take a trip up there right after the holidays and try and find some work.But ultimately we would like to try and move during the summer b/c my oldest is school age and I would rather not have her change schools during the school year. Also my other question is the cost of daycare for 2 children....How expensive is it? Either my husband and myself will work different shifts or send the 2 youngest to daycare. Thanks for any help.

Daycare ranges from $100-$125 a week on average. When I was returning to work I interviewed many until I found one I liked so I discovered that we have some great centers here. Home based daycare will be cheaper of course. Schools offer before and after care to the tune of $60 per week and I think the second child is only $30 but don't quote me on that

As for jobs, anything in the health field should be no problem as we have several hospitals around. Yahoo jobs is a good site or you can try our local classifieds:
