While on maternity leave, sometimes you want to devote yourself to something other than childcare and household chores. The best rest is a change of activity. And if this activity also brings money, then life begins to play with new colors. It is quite possible to make money if you stay at home with your child.
Instructions
Step 1
Start a website on the Internet. There is almost certainly a topic that you know better than anyone else. Your personal website could be a blog where a young mom will talk about her life, share tips and experiences with other parents, show off her new clothes, and write about the best remedies for stretch marks on her stomach. You can put ad blocks on your site, for each click on which you will receive money. To increase your income, find groups and social media pages where you can advertise your blog. Ask your friends to click on 2-3 advertisements once a day and tell their friends about your site. When you reach 1-1.5 unique visitors per day, you will start receiving offers from advertisers, which are guaranteed to bring you tangible income.
Step 2
Get busy with handicrafts. Cross stitching, knitting, macrame, decoupage, creating wicker baskets or watercolor paintings - this is not a complete list of what you can do on maternity leave. There are many sites on the Internet, built on the principle of shops, where you can display your crafts and set a price. Over time, you will have regular customers and admirers of your talent. If the site does not have the opportunity to put your work for sale, send a letter to its owners with photos of your handicrafts. It is possible that they will be interested in you and make a profitable offer.
Step 3
Write articles. Every website on the Internet needs texts: interesting, catchy, original. If you write without mistakes and know how to formulate your thoughts, you can try yourself in writing articles. Suitable orders can be found on freelance exchanges, groups and publics of social networks, in LiveJournal and so on. Not infrequently there are advertisements for the search for editors, content managers, interview transcribers, authors of reviews on various products.
Step 4
Become a nanny. Most likely, the neighbors with whom you sometimes meet on the playground while walking, complained that they could not find a nanny for a couple of hours a day. You can do babysitting. If you love children and easily find a common language with them, it will make no difference for you to feed and put to bed one or two or three children. Feel free to offer your help to other parents. Most young moms are willing to pay just to carve out a couple of hours to go to the store or beauty salon.
