Hi :) Im a stay at home mom of Semira whos 3 and Novalei who will be 2 in june, Im also due with my 3rd girl in 4 weeks, I was interested in some stuff I can do online just for a little extra cash, right now I do mycashcrate, and I like it but I was hoping maybe there was some other stuff I can do as well that you ladies can help me out with. Im really not interested in starting my own business at this time, just maybe some surveys or something really simple I can do when the kids are asleep or playing.
Thanks in advance :D

Well there are several things you can do while kids are asleep or playing. Maybe some writing gigs, or blogging would be up your alley? It would all depend on the interests you have or the skills you can offer. If you figure out what things you have to offer, that would be a start on figuring out what to look out for when jobs or gigs are being offered. :)
Good luck, and hope you find something you are interested in doing. :)

I know I have posted this alot. But it sounds like you need a non phone job. I would check the sig lines of the wahm mom's here they have great sites. (I dont have a sig line so I think I can get away with saying that lol) Also the writing folder is excellent. The WAHM writers are always supportive and really answer questions quickly. As long as you read the new writers thread first. If you like writing break studios, internet brands, demand studios, and textbroker both pay by the article. The average person can write one article per hour. There are also many paid blogging sites to consider as well

Thanks for the responses everyone, and yes a non phone job would be ideal. Even if it was just more paid surverys like said I use mycashcrate, im just trying to build some money a little quicker then that. I dont need a whole lot an extra 100-200 a month would be super awesome for me right now. thanks so much for responding :))

Welcome! Just so you know, this is a folder for actual work at home jobs and we aren't allowed to talk about paid surveys and such here. There might be a folder for that but I'm not sure. Browse through this one though-there are lots of great job leads and info here! Good luck!

Welcome to the forum.
Sounds like you've already had some good suggestions and obviously we can't see the PMs you got but I'd like to make some suggestions to add to the pot.
As you don't wish to start a business you're looking more at 'piece work' type of work. A lot will depend on your skills and your likes/dislikes but you can earn cash quite fast by doing things like writing, blog posting, forum posting, answering questions, etc. If writing is something you enjoy, there is always demand for well written articles which you can sell as Private Label Rights or PLR in packs of 10-20 articles. There are lots of places where you can sell these.
Another writing example: if you have specific knowledge or are good at research, you could easily earn $15 per article which would mean you only need to write 10 articles to earn what you need! I am aware of some article writers with niche skills & experience who can demand up to $50 per article! It all depends on your skills & knowledge and the demand in the market place.
With your 2 young children and another about to arrive, sounds to me that you'd have great credibility and a lot to say about expecting kids and bringing up toddlers!
Whatever you choose to do, I wish you all the best!
