Depending on what state you live in, You might be able to qualify to be a Independant Agent. It is an inbound call taking job... And you work from home and work only when you can, you just sign on and start taking calls. I work for the company headquarters. From what I hear alot of people think it is awesome.

I am. I have a three year old daughter and I stay home with her and make money two different ways.
1) I am the office manager for a family owned business which I do out of my home.
2) I make extra money online by completing offers on this website - http://www.treasuretrooper.com/173384 . It's legitimate and you never pay them (or even give up the carefully guarded credit card numbers or I would never have joined!) You probably won't make a full-time salary or anything here, but it is good for spending money or supplemental income and with two boys, I'm sure you know how important that is. Anyway, feel free to email me if you have any questions, I highly recommend it!

If you can handle another child try babysitting part time. You'll earn a few bucks and stay home to raise your kids. Or, if you can try to work on the weekend +/or a couple nights a week waitressing or something and have hubby watch the boys. You'd make decent money and leave with cash in your pocket each night you worked.

When I started staying home I began cleaning offices on the weekend for a business owner I knew- that way I could go and work at night or on my husband's days off so he could keep the baby-- the workload is light (basically emptying waste baskets and dusting) but pays great about 100 a week for 3 hrs work!-- I was cleaning all the time anyway so why not find someone to pay me for it right?!

I stayed at home for years with my kids. I actually just started back to work about a month ago. I sold children's boutique clothing on ebay that I got at yard sales, outlet malls and other stores on clearance, and also some of my kids clothing. They have to be name brand in order to make a profit. But, I did great. Was able to pay for pageants, cheer, gymnastics classes, and of course more boutique clothing for my kids. The only downside was that I gained tons of weight which is slowly going off since I started back to work. Ebay is great for that extra income! Good Luck with whatever you decide to do! Staying home with the kids can be very rewarding and very exhausting lol. It's a good idea to take one day off per week just to get away. Even if it is just for a few hours :)

I babysit for my landlady whenever she needs me and i make jewery for my mothers store with swarovski crystal and sterling silver. I am also helping my husband with our filming business as well. I am also in the starting process of doing a sales rep job from home for a company my mother buys from for her store. So there are things out there you can do. If we had a bigger place i would babysit more children and make more money, but for the time being i just watch these two. Good Luck!

Are you single? Obviously your spouse won't be able to make up for your financial absence?? I personally think staying at home would be well worth giving up something that equaled out to $100. It benefits your kids very much, growing up and later on. Good luck!

In home child care for other kids can net you $500 per week or more, maximum of 6 kids.

we just went into credit card debt so that i could adequately take care of our children and then we paid it off when times were better.
separation from mommy of more than 10 hours a week is so damaging to children under 5, with consequences for their emotional, intellectual, and physical health that it really doesn't matter what the cost of avoiding it is.
just determine to do the right thing by your kids and things will fall into place.

My friend's mom does ebay a lot. youcan do it from the comfort of your home and you can do it while your babies are napping or what not. i'm not sure how long she's been doing it but right now she's raking in like 3 grand a month.
