Increase your family income by working from home

Working at home is really the best job for moms. You get to spend time with your child, ensuring that he or she is well taken care of. However, raising a child is not cheap, and that is why some moms have decided to work from home.

Some of the traditional work from home jobs include:

Babysitting:
There are lots of working moms who need someone to take care of their child while they are at work in the day. Since you are already taking care of one, might as well profit from it and babysit other children.

Pet-sitting:
Similar to babysitting, but you take care of pets like cats and dogs while their owners are at work.

Tutoring:
If you have a college degree, you can tutor your neighbours' kids for a fee.

Baking Cakes:
If you can back cakes, then this method is definitely doable for you. Other parents throw parties for their kids all the time and what does a party need? CAKES! If you can bake a cake and charge a reasonable amount, word of your business will spread around soon.


But to be honest, the best work from home job that you can do to start making money and increase your family income is to make money online.

Some of you might say,

"But online? I want to make money online too but I have heard of a lot of scams and besides, I am not good with all this IT stuff! Is there really a legitimate way for a newbie like me to make money online?"

The answer is YES!

How do I know this? Because I have seen my family income double and EVEN TRIPLE because my wife has personally tried and tested the online opportunities that have come to her. With her previous working experience in sales, she is as much of a newbie as you are!

We hope to help other parents increase their household income too. The money may not come IMMEDIATELY, and the start may be slow, but hey, what type of legitimate business is? What we can promise you is that if you keep at it, the money will come.

Let us share with you our money-making secrets so that you can give your child the best life possible.

The real salary of a stay at home mom

Moms who stay at home actually wear many hats.

They are the Director of Family Affairs, the day care provider, accountant, driver, counselor, chef, nurse, laundress, entertainer, and school teacher. Based on a standard work week, reported estimates have shown that a fair wage for the typical stay at home mom would be well over USD90,000 for undertaking all of her daily tasks. Add in overtime for when your child gets cranky at night, and the appropriate salary takes a leap of around USD25,000.

USD90,000 may seem like a lot, but what if I told you that my wife managed to easily make HALF of that by working from home and growing her online business? Most of what she did required little to NO start-up costs, are definitely legitimate and can be done if you have internet access. You don't even need to be a technical expert!

I will share some of her tips and resources in the coming posts so stay tuned!

Make money at home now!

A child may be a delight, but raising one is not cheap.


If you are a stay at home mom, and looking to supplement your household income, then you have come to the right place. Making good money from work at home jobs and growing your own home based business on the Internet is definitely possible. 


My wife can back me up on this - she has personally undertaken some of these opportunities during her pregnancy. She is now a full-time mom to our daughter and the additional source of income has been great help to our household income.


If you are reading this, that means you have access to the internet and can start your own legitimate online business and make money online right away! That is already a step in the right direction!


For you house-husbands out there, these jobs can work for you too!
