As a mother, you would want to carefully carve out time for your children, your partner, and for yourself, without compromising on any of them. And undoubtedly, you would be skilled at multi-tasking. If you want to continue working from home while managing your house and taking care of your children at the same time, listed here are four exciting work-from-home jobs for stay-at-home moms.
Online teacher: Sign yourself up on FaceTime, Google Hangouts and Skype and advertise to be an online tutor in one or more subjects you are competent in. You could start your freelance tutoring jobs by teaching children of your siblings, friends, or neighbors. Besides, if you are knowledgable and trained in foreign languages, vocal music or any musical instrument, you could extend this online teaching to people living in other countries who are interested in learning the languages you know or demonstrate the musical skills you are proficient in. You could individually instruct the students or promote small online groups to teach them together.
Content writer: If you have decent writing skills, creativity, and imagination, you could become a content writer for regular paper magazines or digital ones. Many magazines prefer hiring freelance writers who can be assigned jobs without having to actually provide them physical desk space. The advantage is you could work for one or more publications simultaneously.
Social media specialist: Start by following prominent people and potential clients on Twitter or Facebook and write on their boards. Visit concerts, art exhibitions, and social events, to connect with the artists or speakers. Look out for private businesses, independent artists, musicians, clubs or entrepreneurs and deliver a cold pitch to them about how you can contribute to improving their visibility and presence in their respective fields on social media. Do this by designing websites for them, tagging or liking them on social media or by creating and promoting special blog pages dedicated to them, and all these can be easily done from home.
Graphic designer: If you are creative and also happen to be a whiz at handling various designing software, then designing invitations, posters, websites, or blog spots for people wanting to announce an event or program might be quite an attractive job for you. There is a huge demand for graphic designers by small and large companies, and even independent businesses who wish to stand out from the crowd in this fiercely competitive world. Hence, an ingenious marketing strategy would boost not just their brand, but also increase demand for your work.
