Any work at home moms on here?

I work full time, and I'm also a part time student.  It's so stressful.  I don't know if I can handle both job and college, AND have a baby.   I'm just wondering if any women out there have successfully profited from working at home?

    Do you mean are there women who work from home that have good paying jobs?

    I work from home and make a normal middle class salary, and have many friends who work in high tech from home that make much more than me.

    I don't work at home on a regular basis.  I did work at home when I had foot surgery and it went great.  Our rules say that if you have a baby you have to have other child care while you work from home.  You can feed the baby during breaks and such but can't be the full time provider and say that you are working at the same time.  If I did need to be on bed rest before the baby was born, I might be able to work from home but I doubt that my current supervisor would allow it.

    I work at home.  I have my own childcare business.  :)  I have been licensed (to provide care for up to 8 children) for 13 yrs.  I would not say I make GOOD money but I make enough to help with the bills and it is a plus to be home for school holidays/sick days.  I do get stir crazy though.. being stuck at home 5 days a week for 10 hours a day can take a toll.  I LIVE for my online friends just to have some adult "conversation".  :) 

    I don't know what state you are in but it is relatively easy to get licensed in CA.  A home inspection and some training days are required.  After you are licensed you just have to make sure your CPR/1st aid training stays up to date.  Oh and make sure your are ready at all times for a surprise inspection from the county.  :)

    I own a business and work from my home. I in a different city than the rest of my team. My child is in pre-school all day so I can actually get work done. He started when he was 4 months old.

     I have no time to clean the house, so I have a housekeeper come once a week.
