I just made the decision last weekend to leave my career and become a rep for Silpada (jewellery) so that I can stay home with my kiddies

I work limited part time in my job so to get a little more income, I get work through a temp agency. You let them know the days and times you are available, they do the footwork and offer you work. It gives you a lot of flexibility since, if you are having a particularly tiring week, you can turn a job down every now and then and have the extra days off. Also, with the economy so bad, many companies are not hiring permanent employees to get projects done so they hire temps who they don't have to pay benefits. Other companies use temps as a way to screen potential permanent employees.

depending on which part of the time u work, if u live close to a school you could offer before school or after school care for kids in your neighborhood.

I started doing a couple of survey type sites while I was home on maternity leave, it was easy because I could sit there and nurse while doing them. Also the one gives you points you can turn in to paypal cash just for searching! These are the ones that have worked for me the best (yes they work, yes they are trust worthy, I've been doing them for over a year)

kiranata:
Sell direct sales type stuff? Avon, Scentsy, Pampered Chef, etc.

I know someone who sells Avon - and if you're sales-oriented & have dedication to get out there and market your biz, you can make a decent amount per month.

Also - I've always loved Stella & Dot (jewelry). My local sales rep seems to do really well!

Best of luck!

If you are thinking of doing a direct-sales sort of thing, I would suggest something that people need to re-order. I've sold Mary Kay for 5 years now. I really just sell to family and friends, so I don't make much extra $$ at it (I could if I put in more time and effort, though!) and I make enough that I haven't had to buy my own products for 5 years. I had a friend who sold SIlpada and found it difficult because you don't need to re-order anything. If you are doing Mary Kay, Avon, or even Tastefully Simple people fall in love with a product and need to re-order it when they run out.

Just my opinion and something to keep in mind

Pinecone research is another good one. I have reloadable debit card and two days after i take the survery they add $3.00 to my card. I have been doing the survey thing since my maternity leave with my first LO and I love it. It gives me a little extra cash each month that I use when I coupon at drug stores. Its enough combined with couponing that all our toiletries, personal care items, cleaning supplies and OTC medications have been paid by doing surveys and my paycheck can go to more important things like bills.

Maybe see if anyone in your area needs occasional childcare? If you will be home with LO anyway, that could be a fairly simple way to bring in some extra money.

I ditto Stella & Dot (jewelry). I sold it for a few months, BUT had to stop bc I got pg w/ DC1 and had a very demanding full time job. You get out what you put in and I couldn't do it justice, but my girlfirend does it and makes a few grand a month. In order to be successful you MUST have parties and you MUST constantly grow your line beneath you. LOVE the product though...it sells itself!

I sell scentsy and I love it!!!! It's how I make extra money and meet fun new people and I get a pleasant surprise when someone buys off my site. If your ever interested in it or want to know my you can email me thru my scentsy site if you like. What I love also is with being pregnant and after baby is here I don't have to worry about breathing in harsh fumes and chemicals from the candles I used to burn.

I would love to sponsor you or anyone who was interested I'm still a little new but I've made a good extra amount of money to where I've considered actually doing it full time after Elijah gets here

I currently work PT, in the afternoons. I watch a few kids in the mornings. But, once I have #3, I plan to quit my job and watch kids full-time.

I also sell Wildtree products, https://www.mywildtree.com/ShannonB/ but I really just make enough to buy more Wildtree! I don't really put that much time or effort into it, though. :-)
