Earn an income whilst staying at home with your children.
ByI have been busy researching on your behalf… My children are now 13 and 8, but when they were babies, I spent almost 8 years as a stay at home mum. I worked in IT before I had my first daughter and I thought that I would have the baby, hand it to the nearest midwife, pick up my briefcase and rush back to work. Oh how little I knew!
Once Verity was born, I (of course) didn’t want to return to work. I stayed home for the first 6 months of her life and then our financial situation meant that I had to return to work. I worked for the next 12 months and hated it SO MUCH that we rearranged our lives and I gave up work. I didn’t return for 7 years.
During those 7 years, I searched for a way to make an income that meant I could stay at home with my daughters. I didn’t want to earn a fortune (although hey, that would have been great!) I just wanted to make enough to pay some bills etc. I did some party plan, some mystery shopping, some other bits and pieces, but I never did find that special something that meant that I could work from home flexibly.
Nowadays, it is much easier to find flexible work. Things like homeshoring (where you either make or receive phone calls from home on behalf of various companies) have meant that you can work AT home rather than FROM home. However, the one way that seems to be a legend in its own lifetime is earning an income online.
I am currently researching this for you and I will be running a “How to Earn an Income Online for Dummies” in the New Year. This course will be a series of webinars and will be aimed at stay at home mums (moms!) who have the following IT skills -
- can send an email
- can shop online
- can knock out a letter from a word processing package
- that’s it!
I will make it so simple that if you can do the three things above, you can follow this course. I will be as jargon free as possible and any jargon I do use will be in a glossary and totally explained in plain English. So, keep watching this space for a course designed especially for Stay At Home Mothers!







Your website is so informative … keep up the good work!!!!

Hello from Norway! I have found your link on msn. Great content! Jessica A. Wheeler x
A good selection of BPO Outsourcers can be found on this site. Take a look.
Good points raised here. I am grateful to you for that, however you deserve more thanks than that. I suffer from color blindness (deuteranopia in my case). I mainly use Opera browser (no idea if that changes anything), and a considerabland a number of web sites are challenging to comprehend thanks to a careless range of colours used. However, here, as the range of colors is good, the design is extremely tidy and pleasant to comprehend. I don’t know whether it was a premeditated and conscious undertaking, or just the ‘luck of the draw’, but I still thank you.
This is good stuff. I am always looking for such great content to forward to my readers.
Exceptional article. There’s a lot of solid info here, though I did want to let you know something – I am running Ubuntu with the up-to-date beta of Opera, and the look and feel of your website is kind of funky for me. I can figure out the articles, but the navigation doesn’t function so solid.
Great blog design, just found it in yahoo.
Nice Post!. I was searching for work at home ideas and marketing techniques when I came across your website post by accident on Bing. This is exactly what I was looking for. I’ve saved this post for future reference
Nice article – Cheers
