I work part time in the evenings after my husband comes home. I clean people's houses and I absolutely love it. It took me a while to find that this is the type of work I like, I started working for a cleaning company just cleaning offices after hours and wasn't getting paid crap for all the labor involved and there was a lot expected of me. So I got this great idea to just advertise locally to clean peoples houses and I quit the cleaning company. So now I work for myself and I find that's the best thing out of it. This is the type of work that you have to like doing not just doing it for the money. All of my clients are the sweetest people and I find myself building relationships with them along the way. A lot of people think I'm crazy that this is what I love but I like helping people and getting out of my house for a few hours to spend some time with other adults, plus I get exercise, I feel that the concentration on what I'm doing gets my mind away from daily things I think about. I make great part time money doing this too, I don't think that I could not work or find a hobbie that would allow me some me time while being a SAHM. This is something that benefits me and our household because of the extra money! Good luck to you.......

Oh crap...was I supposed to be making money? I've been a stay-at-home mom for most of my 22 year marriage and made little money to speak of over the years and always outside the house. We just live on the hubby's paycheck. He considers my work around the house worthy of sharing. Thank God!
I have considered getting into the ebay selling thing lately. After raising 3 daughters, there's lots of stuff laying around here that other people would probably buy! I have a closet full of $300-$400 prom dresses that are still in beautiful shape and very much in style. That's one option anyway.

I have 5 children and am so thankful to be able to stay home. I have tried different things - ebay - writing - web design.
Ultimately I write - I design websites - but mostly I write. I earn from the affiliate ads on my pages - and I'm working on publishing an ebook.
If you know anything about anything you can have a website - and be an infopreneur. Write about your passion. My website comes with all the tools to make it possible - and many who thought they couldn't are actually making a good income with theirs. My site in below and it leads to a page talking about this very subject. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions about doing this!

I work 7 hours a week (Saturday Only) at a florist. I bring home $40/week. Just enough money to go out to a nice dinner once a week, a movie, a fun day at the Zoo.... or save it up for a fun family mini-vacation once a month.

There is no "get money quick while not doing anything"...if you want to make money you're going to have to either provide a service or work for someone else.
Best of luck to you!

I have my husband pay me for everything I do in the house :) so basically the whole check goes to me (us) . We're a team he works there I work here, and that's how we make ends meet, If you're worried about ur income why not try to watch after a kid or two from ur neighborhood and make couple bucks that way.

I'm a scopist. It's typing for court reporters. I think it's awesome because I can stay here and be with the babies, if my son needs me at school, I don't have to ask time off from work to go do so, and my office is my bed lol

i personnal dont make money, I "work" at home and dont get paid for it with $$ i get paid many other ways tho.. I get to see my kids every day and raise them the way I see fit and not a caregiver or nanny. I see most every little silly and unimportant thing my children do and find joy that I am able to be there for them whenever they need me!! the list could go on and on....

Amazon.com My parents are semi-retired and they use this to supplement their income. They sell books online. Sometimes they buy a book at a garage sale for under a dollar and sell it for twenty! Also you can sell stuff on ebay. I am a college student, and this is one way to earn quick cash.

You can have a day care out of your home and watch a few other children as well as your own.
