I completely understand where your coming from!! The good new is there are options, I would recommend finding something that isn't customer service however (because most require a zero background noise!) There is alot of advice and ideas on this forum

Default Search Freelance Job Listing Sites

My heart truly goes out to you. I think what you should first ask yourself is, what do you like? Do you like to write, or are you into design? What kind of skills do you have? And mostly, what kind of skills are you willing to learn? I would suggest maybe checking out some freelance job listing websites. Maybe fill out a profile, add a resume, and see what pops up. Don't sell yourself short, it sounds like you have a lot on your hands, but you also have a lot to offer. You MUST be an extremely talented multi-tasker with all those kids, probably able to handle high stress situations as well. Employers are looking for people just like you!

I hope this helps, good luck to you.

Default I read your post....

What about a direct sales company?? or do you want to literally stay at home?? I am a Tastefully Simple Team Mentor and I would love to share info with you. You can stay home and just do catalog or online parties but to be honest, the money is out doing a party or 2 a week.

Tastefully Simple is a home party company that sells food. What do you think??..would you like me to send info??

Default work at home

Hi there,
There's a lot of ways to earn money from home.. You don't need to leave your home, you can earn money as long as you want.. I will recommend you to start with CPA network, all you need to do is just create a website and sign up for CPA network.. As a publisher, you are sure to get higher commission rates than you would on your own.

Welcome to the forum... You are in the right place if you want to find something to do from home. One thing you will want to decide is whether you want a JOB to do at home, or a BUSINESS. There is a big difference, so when you check out links and talk to people, you can ask them about what theirs is and why they like it. A job is generally going to have you working a particular # of hours (although some are flexible) and/or doing a certain amount of work per week. A business is generally much more flexible, and you can put in as many hours as you want each week. A job will probably pay you a set amount, whereas a business' income can increase over time (with consistency and hard work).

Check out different options, and like others have said - BE CAREFUL, do your research, and try to find something that you feel passionate about. It CAN be done - there are many of us working from home with little children and earning a decent income!

Start from what you like to do. Do you like selling? What are your hobbies? Do you like to talk to people? Maybe sell products online? You can always use google to find and research a company and then ask for information once you find something that you may want to do.Nevertheless, good luck on your search?

Default Finding a Business that "Fits"



There are many businesses that you can work completely from home. My advice is to really research your options. Be sure to check out the company thoroughly, speak to people in the business, make sure it is a product or service that you truly can stand behind. I am very grateful to have been able to be home with my three children, because of a home business. So, take your time, don't let anyone twist your arm, be certain of what you choose, then work a little every day and you'll be rewarded well!

You can do data-entry job. People are usually making $300 and more per day through this job. . This is not a get-rich-quick opportunity. But It is a way to make some steady income.
