What a problem!!!! Now that I have my baby I just don't want to go back to work, I want to spend every second of every minute with my lil one, but unfortunately money is tight and with one income coming in is very difficult to keep up with the responsibilities we have, plus the ones that come alone with a baby. I need to work, that's reality. Here is the question, back to my old one, look for a new one, or work from home. The last one is more appealing to me because will give me the chance to be with my baby plus to bring income in. So I started an adventure looking for that job that will make my dream come true, be with my baby while making some money. I though it was going to be easy and looking I found flexible works that will allow me to stay home. But, for my surprise, the ones that I like require more academic preparation that what I have right now (don't get me wrong, I have a bachelor in Business). so I kept looking and found a wide variety of what to do from home. Here some picks:
**Income Tax Prepare, no major required but the knowledge of current tax law and you can do that by taking a course in H&R Block and beign certify as an income tax prerared by the IRS.
**Etsy Ebay Amazon where individuals can sell their wares online, from candles to clothes to furniture.
**Create you own blog and get advertisers, they will pay you for it.
among others.
I'm doing the last one writing about my new life as a mom. Be aware of scams, there are so many that is very easy to be fool.
Forbes recommends to follow these steps:
1. Do some self-reflection and think about what you actually want to DO as a work-at-home mom.
2. Think about how much time you want to devote to a work-at-home job.
3. Once you figure out the career areas you’d like to focus on, it’s time to do some research.
4. Seek the support of fellow working moms.
5. Be aware of scams.
6. When you apply to jobs, focus on your skills and abilities and what you can offer the company
This article is very helpful on how to succed working from home and I'm very exited to see what i can do to make my dream of having the perfect job all from home come true.
