I recently started working from home and although I have two children under age two and a husband, I find it rewarding to do more to help with our family's financial situation. I have tried many work from home programs but none that worked and actually paid as well as what I'm doing now.
All mothers deserve to make a financial contribution if they so desire. Hopefully you will find what you need.

I am a work-at-home mom and love it. I do medical transcription and make really good money doing it. It is hard to balance the family and work, and to keep disciplined to do the amount of work I need to, but it is soooo worth it. The flexibility of my job is the best part.

I am a work at home mom of 4 children, and I would not have it any other way. I am part of an amazing company, and am able to provide for my family more than if I were working a 9-5 job. I love being able to be there when my older kids get home from school, and enjoy being the one raising my 15month old. I didn't want some one else enjoying my baby, and this opportunity has allowed me to be the mom I wanted to be. I hope that more moms are able to work at home and enjoy their kids.

I am a work-at-home mom. I do medical transcription, which pays really well and I have tons of flexibility. It is honestly the best decision I have ever made to work at home. I love being able to be here for my kids and participate in school functions, etc. It might not be for everyone, but it was definitely the right thing for me and my family.

Quoting: affiliatesheree Now, it is so much fun adding new things to my website because it looks just like I imagined it when I first started really brainstorming.
affiliatesheree, Did you set up your own website?I have been a stay at home for over 19 years but recently joined the 'get PAID at home' Moms club! - We are ALL 'work at home moms' whether we own a business or not!!
I have a very successful business that I do from home and have a website with that , but was wanting to set up my own personal website and would love to have some tips on how to do that..
Thanks and have a blessed weekend! ~Viola

Yes Viola, I did set up my own website.
It really gives you a lot of creative freedom. I never had any luck with those "cookie cutter" websites that you get for free.
I was able to really laser target my niche this way.
The Newbie Helpsite was born when I was first starting out with my home based business and had so many questions and no one to explain it to me in 'layman's term.' I decided that my mission was to help people.
It's really easy to get scammed in the 'work from home' niche. there are so many options out there and they all sound good at first, but I actually got sick and was not able to work so...
I had plenty of time on my hands to research and learn. I was a plug in profit site while I learned and I stayed with the same host because they really got me through a lot of technical difficulties in the beginning.
The website editor available for download (free) on my tools page is what I used to create the entire site.
I'm experimenting with others now, but the one I use is SO EASY. I never even knew what HTML meant when I started, now I'm working on Lead Capture pages, sales pages, and all kinds of other goodies for my second website.
I would love to give you tips on how to build your website.
In fact, you just gave me a great idea. I have an Ezine that comes with free "newbie internet marketer" tips.
I'm going to make a mini course on website editing and offer it to my subscribers. Thanks for the great idea. I have an index card file where I put all my 'newbie tip' ideas and then I write them later based on my experiences and research.
I couldn't have done it without my inspiration, a step by step guide especially for newbies (I don't know if I'm aloud to mention things like that here) and my marketing course which is a more detailed manual for making a legitimate, profitable business at home.
The later even analyzes your site for you.
Again, Viola I would love to help you, it's my calling. Let's get together and brainstorm, ok?
Sheree

I'm a stay at home Mother of 5 ages 7,10,13,15,22 I have been doing home base Internet business for almost 2 years now. last year I made almost a half of million dollars from my website.
My advice would be find something you enjoy and devote as much time to it as possible..make sure its something you believe in. research it. Don't give up !!! there is no such thing as getting rich over night.

Right, if you hear that your going to make a ton of money for doing absolutely nothing, run the other way.
That is such great advice sparkle.
That is wonderful that you've had so much success in home based business. I bet your kids love that their mom stays at home and makes such great money.
I know my son is happy about it.

I agree with Sparkle 110%! 
I will only add one thing - I have been researching several opportunities and have found success only with those that were related to "what I already know". An elementary school teacher cannot expect to break the bank selling stock tips!
And don't be afraid to multi-task. There are many opportunities out there that require minimal involvement and/or start-up capital. Many are even free & you can succeed by utilizing your established contacts.

Sparkle,
I would be interested to know more about your 1/2 million dollar website. I noticed your sig links to FiendsWin. I looked it up on Alexa and it seems that site wasn't around last year. It was started at the end of July 07 and since they are giving the first month free. I figure your holding out on us. We are all friends here right. Come on tell us how you did it.
If it wasn't for all of those kids I might accuse you of being in porn. It's still the top industry on the internet.

I've been a SAHM for 4 years now and over the last 2 years i've been looking into all sorts of online businesses and even starting my own business. My husband and I realized that there is just not enough time for me to start a traditional business right now, but that wasn't good enough for me so i've continued looking for something to do from home and I have found the perfect thing for me. I know it's perfect for me because the business that I was going to try to do from scratch is here on the computer,only it's 100 times better plus all the money and legwork has already been done for me. Another bonus for me is that I don't even consider it work because I don't have to sell anything or really change anything that I already do. I know I know some of you are probably wondering what it is and some of you already know. All I do is shop online as I normally do and tell my friends about it. I just started about 1 week ago, oh yeah and it's totally free!!

I have been a wahm for the last 2 or so years and its been hard work but the rewards far outweigh the long hours. If anyone tells you that it is a doddle,a breeze being your own boss-don't listen to 'em! I have 2 boys who a big part of my doing this business. I want them to be financially secure. In this climate with jobs unsecure etc I decide to bit the bullet and strive out on my own. I am so glad I did. I have two businesses I am loving,one of which is relatively new but the other has provided me with a very good income not to mention the experience and knowledge I have gained. And I am not stopping there-I am now looking into my third chosen business that will complete my portfolio and take me higher. After 2 years I feel more empowered and confident,and it feels great providing a secure future for my family

I love working from home! My background is nursing and healthcare administration, and after a serious car accident in 2002 I simply couldn't do it any more. My daughter came along in 2005 and I was a stranded single mother on disability. NOT the way I wanted to bring up a child.
Just over a year later, very nearly multiple six figures. MORE importantly, I love the people that I choose to work with, love to set my own hours, love what I have the luxury of doing every day- LIVING!
I won't say its easy, or for everyone- but I will say it is simple. I learn, grow and remain consistent. I will NEVER go back to a world of wanting, lack and dispair.
I can't imagine how it feels to wean a 6 week old baby and leave it to a near stranger in daycare from 8-6pm daily- as so many families feel that they MUST. The reality, today- is that a second income for most families is NOT optional- its required, not to be wealthy, just to GET BY.
So, congratulations to those of you courageous enough to follow your heart and make the commitment and sacrifices to move forward and do what YOU feel is the best for your family. If you can dream it, you CAN acheive it.
It takes courage, it takes guts and it takes determination- but it is WORTH it at the end of the day! Nothing is more important then our children- and they will not be children forever.
I often wish that our North American culture valued family more- and supported and encouraged work at home parents and families with children under age 5 as so many European countries do. One day, our voices WILL be heard and we will see change. In the meantime, congratulations for opening a window where the door is closed!
Cheers
Jani

Thanks for the encouraging words. I am sure by staying focused with my new work it will definitely pay off. You know the late nights after the kids go to bed etc.. just to read up on things and trying to get ahead so you don't worry about it throughout the day while your time and energy is all for the family. Thanks again and great job matiasmommy on not being down from your accident and instead letting it empower you to become more independent and focused on providing stability in more than just financially for you and your daughter. I came from a home of just me and my mother and she struggled the entire time. It was so sad and I feel that it is so important to get ahead and stay there so that my family will never be in that situation. Your daughter will really respect you for that when she's old enough to realize what you did for the both of you. GOOD JOB!

Hi Brianne,
If you would like your shopping mall link to be clickable, just change your signature link code to this:
[url=http://www.mypowermall.com/Biz/Home/62089]Free Shopping Mall[/url
But, add ] to the end. I can't type that here or you will see the hyperlink instead of the code.
So, you paste the whole code in your sig, add the closing bracket ], and save the changes.
Let me know if you have any trouble.
Newbie Shield

How did you break into this field? Did you have to take some courses first to get certified? If so then how did you get into the field? I have heard a lot about this opportunity but heard it was hard to get into.

Medical or general transcription is great for wah moms. You can go to school for medical transcription, but general or even legal transcription can be done without any special training, as long as you have good English skills.
The hours are flexible and, with experience, it pays very well.
