Omolara is a single parent of a toddler and a seven-year-old - help us after my partner leaving

Last January I went through my partner leaving, and I'm now raising a toddler and a seven-year-old on my own. I work as a cleaner, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a medical coder in the evenings, which will triple my income by April, but I need to bridge the gap until then.
Some weeks I skip meals so my children can eat. I have never asked anyone for help like this before, and I'm doing it for them.
Once I finish my course, I'll pay it forward.
Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown.
Where the $600 goes:
• Course fees and exam costs: $135
• Groceries and school meals: $115
• Rent top-up: $350
Thank you so much.

Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Enugu
Thank you. If you're in Enugu I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Appreciate you taking the time.
Thinking of you and your family, Omolara. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
