[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are no online jobs that you can do from home while you actually care for your child.[/quote] There are no jobs at all (other than nanny share) that you can do from home while you actually care for your child.[/quote] +1. The only caveat that I can think of is if it is a job that can be done when your spouse comes home. Then you can effectively "sign out" as a parent and go to a different room and do your online job until late at night. I have no idea if such a job exists, though. And, really, just because your 5 month old may right now be napping a lot and content to sit still and play with a toy, trust me, it will only remain like this for another month or two, tops. Then you will be chasing the crawling baby everywhere. And when baby reaches 1? Forget about it. [/quote] I have a work at home job that is results based and doesn't have set hours. In theory I could do all the work on nights and weekends when my partner is home, but in reality that is just trading one problem (not being with baby all day) for an even worse problem (trying to shove too much work into too few hours, having no family time, both partners feeling abandoned). I like working at home, but I couldn't do it without full time childcare.[/quote]
