In other words I am keeping my options open. I currently have a fulltime job that pays well but its long hours (12 shifts) at night and this drains me and doesnt allow for me to see my son for more than an hour on the days that I work. I would be very interested in an alternative job that I could possibly do that would allow me to see my son more and possibly has onsite daycare? or pays for part of daycare cost? flexible Spending account (for childcare) ?? Any suggestions?? I would love to hear them,,
Thanks for your replys,
M.

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Thanks for all the great responses ladies. I really appreciate it and I have checked out all the websites you passed along to me. I will continue to search as I do not feel that I have found something that fits me as of yet.

Just saw this. I'm new to mamasource. Wondering if you found a job that worked for you. I've been tryint to get on with Mckay Dee because they have an onsite daycare, but so far no luck.
I have worked for alpine. Actually, I'm still technically employeed by them, but can't get on a program that would work with the quiet hours in my home.
I wish you luck,
C.

Hi there! I just want to tell you about a home based business that is really fun! It is the best thing that has happened to me since becoming a mom. You make your own schedule around your family activities. You are in control of you income.

I do home parties with my lia sophia jewelry. It is the easiest money I have ever made. I truly love this business and the company I represent.

You don't have to be a sales person. You are just sharing the love of the jewelry with people. This comes very easy for me since the jewelry is fabulous!!!

If this sounds interesting contact me at:

Hi M.,

Are you still looking for that perfect job? I now it has been a long time since your post. Would you consider working from home? If you would, I know it is so hard to find the right thing. Not every at home opportunity is for everybody. I'd be happy to chat with you about a company that is helping me build my business at home. No pressure. You can check out my web site or just send me a note if you are interested or just curious.

Good luck!

Hi M., I am a stay at home mom of 2 teens...my hubby is retired. I stay busy selling things on ebay, and my husband sells natural beef jerky products form Wyoming. Yummy. If you would like your own website for free, and start your own jerky business that offers free shipping, you can find it at www.wyomingbison.jerkydirect.com The jerky sells itself, and there are three ways to make some good money without spending alot of time or money.

Good luck, and God Bless your New Year!

Hi my name is R.; I am happily married living in Colorado Springs. Before I started my working from home, I was in the Custom Care for about 3 years. The money was ok, but I felt as if I had lost my FREEDOM. Today, I am able to take time off when I want to.:-) I am able to wake up when my body is finished sleeping, and the best thing is that I'm already dressed for work.
I enjoy helping people DREAM AGAIN. Anything is possible as long as you do not give up on your dreams. I have learned about Mary Kay and how to use the efforts of many to build a large walk away residual income that continues to grow week by week.
So I am here to find more people to help them self to have a better life. If you want to learn how to build financial freedom from the comfort of your own home, then I want to talk to you. I don't care what your background is, where you came from, how much money you have or don't have what nationality you are... as long as you still have DREAMS, and then I want to work with you.... I will help you build a dream lifestyle. That's a promise....
I am looking for people that would like to work at home with their own Home Business Opportunity. If you are tired of the corporate 9-5 grind, or just want to learn how to build a walk-away lifetime residual income, then I want to talk to you.
If you are interested in looking at one of our hottest home-business opportunities
Please E-mail me @
____@____.com
God bless

Hi M.,

I worked for a company called Alpine Access for over a year. They are a work-from-home company that is totally legit. You never have to pay them anything, you are paid hourly by either direct deposit or they will mail you a check bi-weekly. You are paid $9.00 an hour after training for most programs. They have a lot of clients like Office Depot, 1-800-flowers, and even GE consumer finance. You just take inbound customer service calls, you aren't making any outbound calls, and you don't have to pressure anyone to buy stuff. (You are not allowed to let the customers know that you are working from home.) I really liked the job, and left for personal reasons that had nothing to do with Alpine at all. (I'm actually thinking of going back soon) The only draw-back is that they have a 0 tolerence policy on back-ground noise. It's possible for you to get late evening, or early morning shifts though... or maybe even when your son is at school. It is a very flexible job where you set your own availablilty (following their guidelines, e.g. "must show 25 hours of availability between 6am and 3pm 5 days a week" it varies by program). If you want more info try their website at www.alpineaccess.com

Good luck!

Hi M. -
I work for a VERY "kid friendy" company called DISCOVERY TOYS! Not only does it offer the opportunity to work from home to have more time with your little ones but it actually lets THEM help you out by being your "toy testers" and it provides you with great products for your own family at Wholesale prices!
There are so many reasons why I LOVE Discovery Toys but I will share just a few here:
* AWESOME Educational products that have been around for over 25 years and are very well-known and respected
* GREAT support from Team members which means lots of great new friends!
* Ability to pick my own hours, own paycheck, etc with no pressure of monthly minimums/requirements
* FREE products for my own family to enjoy
* FUN, FUN, FUN !!!

If you would like more info, call me or email me. I would be happy to answer any questions at all - NO PRESSURE!

J.
