Being a full-time mother is a wonderful job but when you think about it, you have to realize that it isn’t really that practical, especially when your kids are a little bit older now. You’ll see that you just have a lot of free time. Instead of being idle, you can just find home based jobs for mothers that you can do.
Using all that time to be productive will not only help in the expenses in your home but it will surely sharpen your skills. This is especially helpful if you have previously been working. To make sure that your mind does not go dull, here are some jobs you can enter to earn money at home.

Open Up A Small Store
If you’re living in a subdivision, it might be a good idea to put up a small store. Although there are tons of convenience stores around, having a ‘tindahan’ is still very ideal in small communities. Your target audience would be children, stay at home parents like yourself and even house caretakers. This will keep you busy and at the same time, help you get to know your neighbors. The only problem with this one is that, you will have to plan carefully what you need to do so you don’t waste capital.
Sell Load
It may not be as lucrative as being as salesperson but for sure, you’ll get to earn some cash. Load is probably like coffee, a very in demand product. In the Philippines, almost everyone has their own cell phone. So it’s impossible for you to lose customers when you’re in the loading business. Contact Globe, Smart or Sun to learn more about this.
Homebased Chat Support
Some BPOs are hiring home based chat support applicants. If you’d like to keep busy, you can always try this career. Unlike the other suggestions, this one pays a great deal of money and can actually be considered as a full time job. All you need to have is an internet connection and a good PC and you’re all set.
