    There is a site called Career Mums. There are often a few LEGIT work from home roles on there. Google it perhaps?

    Have you thought about family day care. Contact your local council for your local scheme, there is some work involved setting up, but can be quite rewarding, you don't have to work full time and can be at home with your kids. I started when my eldest was three, (he's almost 16 now), took a couple of years off with my youngest and have been doing this for years. Gives me the opportunity to be at home for my kids (before and after school, school holidays, etc) and still be able to make a decent income.

    i would so love to do the Family Day Care but we are renting (one of the reasons i'm looking for work so we can buy) but it's definately something i'm looking into once we do have our own place

    The thing is with working from home, is the working bit!

    Really, you still need for the kids to be asleep or very very quiet whilst you work, no matter what you are doing. I had DS in daycare 2x per week when I worked from home. It's not always the answer .

    Have you thought about doing night fill in a supermarket/shop?? I have quite a few friends that do this as they don't need daycare. The shifts go from about 8pm till 11pm (some would be different), so it's not a late night, they leave shortly after hubby gets home. Works really well.

    Hi,

    How about Avon or something like that? I've just started Avon and I had about a week left of the last campaign and I made $50 and I really did not much at all you could make a lot more if youput a bitmore work in or you could check with the local papers about paper runs or letter box distribution companies they are always advertising in the paper. I suppose it depends on home much money you actually want to make
