F/U to Disabled DH: I am looking to work part time from home

countrybaby16

As most have seen my DH will no longer be able to work his current full time job. We own a computer company, so we will be closing due to his back. He will now just be teaching part time. So to help make up the difference I will be looking for a part time job. But I would really like to work from home as DH can't lift our 9 month old and we can't afford to put her in daycare while I am working. If any one has any ideas please send me the info or link. Thank you.

Here is the other post if you missed it and our now confused.  https://community.thebump.com/cs/ks/forums/thread/69964253.aspx

Has your husband applied for disability or workman's comp?  Does he have disability insurance?  Have you looked into government subsidies for childcare? 

I think that your best bet is to get a job outside the home.

WAH jobs are few and far between. You might need to consider going back full time so you can afford daycare and bring in money.

I'm so sorry for all you are going through. Just an FYI, but I believe that if one parent is disabled you can qualify for daycare assistance even if you would otherwise be above the threshold for financial assistance. If working f/t won't pay for daycare you definitely should qualify. It's very unlikely that you'll make enough working p/t or from home to bring in a substantial enough income to support a family, so you may need to look into that type of program so you can work f/t and slowly work your way up until you no longer need it.
