Hi Jolene 
Olivia has just turned 2.8yrs and I have just started work again. I'm doing night shifts to not interfere with the grand plan of her day and on a very casual basis. There is a bit of a demand in New Plymouth at the moment for at home carer's and I will just assume that it is the same in your area? Once you have adjusted to having baby home (which took me nearly 3 years LOL!) then maybe it could be something you could look into. Best of luck! ------------- DD1 May 2006 DD2 March 2011 DD3 August 2012 |

Hey Jolene, Ive been looking into that very thing... I'm a fulltime mum and have been on maternity leave for a year but have just resigned as can't stand thought of full time again but would like some part time work I could do from home. So far all I have really come up with is home based care, and I really don't think that's for me... so I'd love to hear any ideas anyone has!??! ------------- mum to 3 lovely girls :D |

I was lucky enough that my work let me work from home, until I decided that it wasn't working for us.
There are your usual money earners like Avon, Tupperware, Nutirmetics and other party-plan type jobs that may fit your lifestyle. There is also this http://www.jobsformums.co.nz/ - website that I read about recently that helps Mums find jobs inclding working from home. I have only had a quick look so not sure how good it is but it may be worth a try. Good luck ------------- Lindsey
