Does Anyone Know How to Find a "Work from Your Home Job"

Unfortunately there aren't a lot of jobs for your qualifications where you can work at home! The only one I've heard of that comes remotely close is entering information into systems for companies (usually doctor's offices, etc). But that's time-consuming! And boring!!!

There are lots of other things you can try. I teach private music lessons from home, and also work as an Associate with Ignite energy saving my family and friends money on their electric bill (and getting a commission to do it!).

Think outside the box and you'll find what will make you happy. What are you interested in (not qualified for, INTERESTED IN...)? Could you teach others to do something? Could you provide a service better than someone else, or that would be useful to an office but be flexible enough to accomplish at home? If so, what are the avenues you can explore to find an employer?

And if you're interested in hearing more about Ignite, message me and I'll call you. I live in Sugar Land, too!

I agree with the response suggesting that you might 'think outside of the box'. There are so many fabulous ways to make a very good income. I also have a psychology degree and some similar work expereince to you. I use my skills and knowledge to develop an Arbonne International business. I work from home part time and my kids can be with me as I work.

You might also think about the vendors that your different work environments used to determine if there is an opportunity for you to become a vendor of some kind to those industries.

Feel free to message me if you have an interest in hearing about Arbonne as an income option. I am close to you in Pearland.

I'm a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. I set my own hours and work as much as little as I want and need. Stampin' Up! has been around for 20 years. The moto is to "love what we do and share what we love, as we help other enjoy creativity and worthwhile accomplishments... in this we make a difference!

My minimum to sell (or purchase) is $300 per quarter to stay active. Easily achieved with one party. I receive incentives, bonuses and commissions from my downlines sales. There is constant internet and telephone support too.

I do home parties, birthday parties and teach classes. Also, the Angel Policy has changed, so I'm able to take my creations and put them on consignment with local craft stores. Scrapbooking and card making, crafts are in big demand.

Try babysitting in your home. Older toddlers are good because they love entertaining babies. Keep two and charge about $120 for each a week and you'll some income...not getting rich, but do the math...take your salary and subtract what you pay in daycare, gas, dry cleaning, make up, manicures, pantyhose and all of the other incidentles you spend money on so you can look professional.

Good luck

Do you belong to an area church? The community center might even be available. Your home? What about developing a plan on teaching mother/baby/children Child Growth and Development classes that you learned in school, and your own experience? It could be a fee-for service group class to enlighten moms further on how to handle present issues (like this forum does!), get your teaching certificate from Red Cross to teach CPR, and you would all be able to have your children and meet other moms. You would probably ecounter moms that NEED your assistance and experience in Child Abuse issues and how to spot the Warning Signs. You could make up business cards and advertise in the local paper. Like someone said: 1. Do the math - you can dress like mom. 2. Gas would be minimal. 3. The church can't charge (it has to be KNOWN you are not representing the church. 4. The community center would be minimal if anything. 5. It could be a quick startup with minimal money out; ie copies of materials, cards, advertising, snacks for all at first until you build your clients. 5. A great way to market yourself to doctors and hospitals that may have day-care. 6. $10.00 a week (just an example) times 20 moms for a 1-2 hour class a week? 7. You could start with friends, fellow church member-moms and grand-moms, neighbors?

Another idea is to put your resume' together and contact every hospital and community college you could find to see if they have on-site child-care and apply.
Great luck to you!
