With the cost of living ever rising, many stay-at-home parents find themselves mulling over the idea of reentering the workforce. You may be faced with the decision of whether to rely on childcare while spending all day at work or trying to create a revenue stream you can maintain from home.

Nowadays, daycare can leave you feeling like you work forty hours per week just to hand your paycheck over to the childcare center. With that in mind, only one option seems to make sense – working from home. But where should you start? Here are three careers that make decent money while being flexible enough to become telecommuting positions.

Youtuber/Blogger

If you have a talent for writing or filmmaking, social media-based platforms may be a winning career path for you. YouTubers’ revenue stems from the ads they place before and during monetized videos, as well as from paid sponsorships and reviews. As you your subscriber count rises, so will your video’s views, which in turn increases the number of plays the video’s advertisements receive.

In short, more views means more money for you. YouTubers film content on just about any subject that you can imagine. The goal is to keep it family friendly, informative and entertaining. Product reviews, how-to videos and daily life vlogs are popular on this platform. Bloggers make money in nearly the same exact way, expect they mainly focus on writing content instead of filming it.

Childcare

If your own children haven’t worn you out, consider opening your home to other children of a similar age. Childcare is a convenient solution when you need a second income. You are already home, caring for your children and this career path allows you to build on that. In-home childcare calls for strict compliance to government welfare standards to ensure children and safe and tended to, but once you have everything set, you are free to watch the money roll in. Whether you provide all day, every day care, or only emergency, last-minute care for drop-ins, there will always be parents who need your services.

Tutor

Private tutors make anywhere from $20-$85 per hour, depending on the subject being taught. Tutoring sometimes requires preparation time to correspond with teachers and parents, create or find curriculum or to research best practices. Clients can be scheduled to meet you during your children’s nap time, or even later in the day once your spouse is home to take over.

Offering tutoring in specialized areas, such as Dyslexia or high-stakes exams, will bring in the highest level of pay since fewer people have experience in those disciplines. Fortunately, positive end-results often garner recommendations from students, parents and administrators who notice the improvements you inspire.

Thankfully, the modern job market has grown to accommodate the different styles of today’s families. Think of all your strengths and talents, and find a career that best fits what you are already good at. With a quick internet search, you’ll find an endless list of employment opportunities that will allow you to conquer parenthood and a career.
