I am a health coach and business mentor.. I love it so much. I love serving others in health and linking arms with others to do the same. My advice is do something you have a passion for or something you are willing to learn knowing that everyday is a new day to learn what you are doing just like any job ♥️

Work from home as an Administrative Assistant. Honestly had to find a part time sitter so I could focus on work and meetings for the first half of the day. It’s helped

I'm an author so I work 99% from home (with the exception of signings and other appearances, which obviously aren't happening right now anyway.) It's super flexible, I can mostly work whenever and for as long as I can/want to each day as long as I hit my deadlines. I have an almost 4 month old so it's great having such a flexible schedule, and especially since I can do most of my work from my phone if necessary, like when my son is napping on top of me.

I’m a Nutritionist and work for myself. Both my kids have always been excellent sleepers so I get up super early to work and then I break and am strictly mom during the day, we go to parks, play dates, clean the house, etc, and then once my husband gets home I often get back to work or spend time with the family together. Weekends I often work too but I’m in control of that so it varies.

I work from home full time. My son is in preschool for 2 days a week. On other days, I plan activities for him to do independently... sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. It's a balance, but it's doable.

I work from home. My son is four and a half months old. I am a nurse so I do medical writing/editing. It is tough because when I started, I thought I’d just work when he was napping. He only naps for 30 minutes now days and requires constant entertainment between naps so it is tough! If you have someone who can come play with your little(s) then it is nice because you can breastfeed and be there for your baby. Just don’t neglect your baby’s psychosocial needs when she/he is awake! I’m struggling with balancing it all. Good luck!

Hey girl! I’m a full time therapist but hate working for someone else as I’m sure everyone here does. So awesome that so many women work from home. I recently started working for myself on the side and am able to make a supplemental income which is nice. After I had my baby I noticed postpartum hair loss and breakage, so I invested in some vegan haircare and it completely transformed my hair that I became obsessed with the products. If anyone has any issues with this please message me. I know it’s a super sensitive topic for a lot of mommas. Thinking about a second baby soon! 😅

I work for a health care company, we work in the office but are also able to work from home when needed. I like working from home, at least from time to time but I get the most work done in the office. Less distraction! I rather work and make a living than be a stay at home parent, life is just too expensive for one income.

I’m at Paramedic and work full time. I work 48 hours at work and 96 hours at home. It’s super hard being away for that long away from baby. I would love to be able to work from home but I’m not a “social butterfly” at all so I need a computer job lol. I love being a medic though and it’s very rewarding and that is my drive for being away from my little one.

I work from home. I work from my phone so I can take it wherever I go. It so good that I can take my daughter to school and attend events. I have a 16weeks old baby now as well and I really don’t want to go back to conventional work. The time needed to organise myself and two kids then get them to daycare and school then off to work myself. Then do it all in reverse plus add cleaning and meals. I just can’t do it. I want to enjoy my children and my life. I don’t want to be running everywhere and miss what is important. Basically it’s an online biz that helps women find themselves and find what is important to them and if that is Mumcare over daycare then I have done my job. Our community is awesome not just here in Australia.

There is no magic shedule that will fix sleep. That said being able to fall asleep quickly when you get a chance is key, I use headspace app ( has sleep casts). Working in general just recently gotten better as my dd is starting to pretend play ( little over 2), during the year I had her at a preschool in am and I was still struggling to hit deadlines, in summer she's home and it's been great. I just got a gift of bone conducting headphones ( I use a soundscape loop for focus) that leave my ears open for any obvious toddler needs and I am making great progress this month. I do use almost any opportunity to get ahead on projects, whether I wake up at night, early or if I am not a complete mess by naptime, and move my laptop around the house ( have a stand-up desk from ikea in the playroom)

I have been working from home for 3 years now and love it. I think us mamas are capable of doing whatever we wish to do. Nothing really stops us 😉 we want something, we go for it! I remember when I put my 2 weeks notice at my last corporate job. I was scared. But I knew what I wanted. At the time I was working so much that I only got to see my son enough time st home to feed him, bathe him and put him to sleep. That brought tears to my eyes daily 😔 it hit me hard when he told his teacher that my favorite thing to do was “work” 💔 That was it. I decided to work from home and use all my time to be with him. It turned out to be better for my family because not only did I gain back my time with them but my residual income tripled and continues to grow 🙌 I work when he’s asleep or at school. This has transformed our family’s lifestyle overall because we are not always in a rush or always tired, get better sleep, we eat healthier, we spend more time together. And now I’m working at retiring my husband 🥰

I’m an admin that was able to move my full time position to a remote position, ( normally my company doesn’t do that but they’re currently going through a demerger so they’re not hiring anyone.) I normally handle emails from my phone when my son is up. But most of my work I do when he’s sleeping during his nap, ( took me three weeks of sleep training to get to this point.) I also work at night from 9:00-11:00 when he’s down for the day and I pump. Not every day and it changes from time to tone but I try to get in three good naps and time at night. I’ve learned to walk when it’s nice outside and work on the go. Been challenging but doable.

I work from home, I have my own online business. Juggling being a Mum & working is tough but you end up getting yourself into a good routine. While the kids are sleeping is when I work the most. It is definitely the best decision I have ever made. I wish I did it earlier x

I’m a real estate agent and I love it! Making my own schedule and being able to attend all the things my kids have going on it’s been a blessing! You should look into it! I got into this career because my daughter became very ill and we lived in the hospital. While in the hospital, at my previous job I was given option to resign or be fired and it as awful. With my daughters complications at the time I chose to not fight. Once my daughter got out someone needed to be home with her and I thought what could I do that I can work from home and be with her. A friend recommended real estate and here I am!

I am a Jewerly consultant with Keep collective and Origami Owl and also a Member with an online shopping club. Since I am completely home now due to my children school schedule and Bf work schedule at Amazon I have been doing work in between hours of the day and putting time aside for my youngest in the morning since he is not in school yet and then once my kids come home from school,I decided to shut my phone off and attend to them and then back to work and school work later in the night and I will tell you this that it can be hard but if your wanting to make time working from home to make residual income instead of being out all hours of the day due to a 12 hour shift or 9-5 it’s completely worth it working from home but there will be sacrifice as well.

Creating a consistent schedule for baby and your work that will be done at home had helped me. I work from home and manage 2 businesses. I do the same thing each day in order to keep my 10 month old on schedule. When he naps I get the most done. I hope this helps!

I had to leave my job because my baby refused to take the bottle and so here in the US it’s super easy to become a wedding Officiant so I got ordained! Like any business it’s been a little hard to promote my business but I have faith that in little time my business will pick up. I had my first wedding 2 weeks ago and it went wonderfully I can’t wait to do it again and I only invested about 5 hours tops from start to end including my first meeting with the couple. It’s good money too! Now I’m studying to become a notary public to add that to my services offered. Best of luck doll!
