Money For Mummy

Types of work.

If you are good at networking or have access to children’s groups then party plans might suit you.   They can fit around school hours and other commitments - and make an ideal part-time job to boost your income!  www.dsa.org.uk has information on all registered direct selling organisations (or for speedy information at your fingertips you can just click on our job opportunities button!).

If you are more suited to an office based role then transcribing might interest you.  This usually involves tight deadlines and a meticulous eye for detail, but can be a great way to work from home. 

If you have a good memory, enjoy role play and following instructions then you might like to work as a mystery shopper.  This isn’t guaranteed, regular work, but it’s extremely flexible and can be undertaken as a second job in the evenings and weekends if necessary.

Another option available is childminding.  You will have to take a few courses to do this and register with Ofsted, but it is something that you can do from home whilst you also look after your own children.  More information is available on 08001 694486

eBay is a fantastic resource for earning money as well as buying bargain products.  Making money is simple when you register as a seller.  You can also become an eBay Trading Assistant and sell items on the behalf of others, earning commission before passing the profit on to the seller.
