How easy to get part time work in Dubai?

I have 2 young children and gave up my job in the UK when we moved to Dubai a year ago. I am considering whether or not to look for part time work next year, when the older child will have started at school. How easy is it to find part time work over here? I am qualified as a management accountant, but would consider doing pretty much anything to fit in around school holidays etc.
I am thinking well in advance, as we don't currently have a house maid, but if I do start work I would want to employ a maid sooner rather than later, to build up a trust before I would be happy leaving the children in their care for any length of time.
Any advice appreciated.

Any advice appreciated. its not easy as far as i know. there are always people looking for pt work to fit in with kids but a lack of opportunities. also there have been a lot of threads lately about working from home/starting your own business - that is also hopeless. sorry to be negative. :-(
