I am a stay at home mum with three kids. I always worked till I had my children and I would like to continue to contribute to the families income; however I also want to stay at home with my three young children (2 yr old and Twins 3 months). Does anyone know of any good jobs or ideas that you can do from home?

You can sell stuff on Ebay. Or you can babysit someone else's kids who are close in age to yours - then you make $$ and your kids get a playmate :)
Just be careful - this question is likely to get scammers answering you with their "quick money" websites.

Hello let me begin by saying that I am not trying to be negative but if you choose the baby sitting thing get a contract agreement I watched a friend's (supposed) kids and she totally took advantage of me I did it as a favor I really didn't even need the money but after providing everything for her two kids I was so broke I asked her to bring food and things for her kids I only have 1 child so feeding three was a task the original agreement was that she would help with things she gets food stamps and plenty of them !! Just get everything in writing not all parents are irresponsible but many are I quickly learned my lesson and I will not ever do it again I love the kids and it really hurt to see her coming over an hour late to pick them up when I had them from 8-5:30 to begin with they would ask when she was coming and it broke my heart charge extra if they are late and charge for food and things also if you go to mcdonalds they should provide cash for there kids food sorry this is so long I wouldn't want any one to go through what I did!! Good luck!!

I have 5 kids and I work part time at night while they are sleeping and my husband is home, I strongly suggest to not babysitt. I am sure you get enough baby throughout the day. get out and find a part time job to meet other adults it makes you feel soo good to home after you have had some time out of the house. Best of luck to you.

Although you sound like you already have your hands full, if you're willing to take on another job, have you considered babysitting? Watching an extra 2-3 kids would bring in a small, but helpful income.
Consider watching older kids instead of babies. They require less work, (no stinky diapers!!,) and your 2 year will have someone to play with.

babysitting, you could sell stuff on Ebay, or make some craft things and sell them at a consignment shop.
