recently i have been thinking about working from home. i love the job i have now but it is about 40 miles, one way, from where i live and the gas is KILLING me!! plus i feel like i have no time to spend with my daughter. does anyone have any suggestions? i do not sell things and don't have much extra money to invest but other than that i am pretty open. i just have not hear about anything that seems good enough to quit my job. i make decent money and get health ins so the pros of working at home would have to be substantial. TIA!

Hello M. - I don't know if you live in the Richardson/Addison area, but I've started a business - www.kid-express.com. I expect to grow relatively quickly and will need part-time drivers for my shuttles. Please visit the site to see if it appeals (if it's close enough) and feel free to contact me if it sounds good to you. It would only be part time, though, so I don't know if that will be enough for you to make a drastic change. Thanks, and Good Luck - I totally understand where you're coming from :)

HI there M.. I also have a 4 year old little girl and have been working at home for 3 years now. It can be really challenging to find something legit when you first start looking out there. I looked for about 6 months and tried just about everything. I help other moms now find a way to work from home now. We have made sure that the company is with the Better Business Bureau and have been around a substantial amount of time. It's 1099 employment, but its soooo much better than a work 10 hours, get paid 10 hours type of deal because the income is substantial and residual. You can request the info at www.BeFreeTeam.com or give me a call and I can give you the details at (866) 403-6703 . Whatever you decide- good luck! :)

It's a wonderful choice you made to stay with your daughter. Before you go completely cold turkey you should keep our job while building on something that you could work on full time. There are thousands of Work at home opportunities just make sure you research them in detail before you make a committment. I personally am an associate for Ignite/Stream electricity and I don't sell anything, I just help people save money on their electricty , which people use already. if you want more information just email me. Good luck on your search and hope you find something that you will enjoy.

Hi M.,

I know you've already gotten several great responses, but let me share what's working for me. I recently joined a company called Work From Home United and am loving it! A friend I met through the company has been working it for 3 1/2 yrs and is earning $5,000 a month without ever leaving her kids at day care, driving to work, or punching a time clock- not bad! The benefits are great, it's very flexible, family and eco-friendly, and non complicated. If you'd like more info, please feel free to check out my website... I'd be glad to tell you more!

M.,
I am a teacher, but after June I will have 2 under 2, and the daycare and gas leaves me making less than 10/hr. Anyway, I looked a long time, before I decided to take a leap with the MOM Team. There is very little start up and it's refundable w/in 4 months! Plus the company we are with is all about going green and personal prosperity. You can even work around you current job until you felt comfortable leaving. There are other Moms who worked part time until they REPLACED their income! The bottom line is there is NO selling, NO inventory, NO cold calling. There IS unlimited training & support from Moms like you, and a free websit. Basically, you get out what you put in. Visit my website to see what you think: www.best4mykiddos.com
or email me ____@____.com
I would love to talk to you!
