Hi, I’d be so grateful if you guys could help me out!

I’m currently a stay at home mom of two. We’re making it financially with my husband’s salary, but barely.
My toddler is starting daycare in September so I’d love to do something to supplement our income.

What I’m good at: photography (I do that officially in the summer), kids styling/fashion, interior design, writing, really anything creative.

I can’t take a course right now to be super qualified (for example I’d love to take a kids fashion design course), and I don’t wan’t to freelance.

It also has to be flexible/part time or remote, since daycare and bays hours are short.

I know it’s specific, that’s why I’m a little stumped…
I’m in Monsey, if it matters.
Thanks in advance!

In terms of interior design, I think there’s a big market for small jobs

You can even do this virtually if you’re good at it and have clients anywhere

Personally I would love if a decorator would give me some ideas on how to make certain rooms looks neat and minimalistic- which paint colors, small furniture items etc

If you work really hard you can even do affiliate links etc and make money that way but it would be easier to just get clients to pay you

Photography is very in demand - esp if you travel to do newborns or family photos

Thanks! I love photography but I'm a bit burnt out - you gotta do all the marketing yourself to get the clients etc. I'd really love to try something more steady.

you might consider keeping your toddler home until they start school.

Steady and flexible don't exactly go hand in hand when looking for a job.

Wouldn't we all love to work only when we wanted to.

Why do you think I haven’t considered it? I am sending her out only because it’s what’s best for her. She’s getting really bored!

Product photography, I'd think there's a pretty big demand especially for companies that sell on Amazon. You might find something steady and flexible hours.

What would it take for you to run a daycare for her and baby?
