[mom~2boys]

Are there any other Work at home mom's (or dad's) out there. I provide childcare in my house so that I can stay home with my two boys.

OOO OOO! *raises hand* Me me!!

I also have 2 boys and am a stay at home mom. I also homeschool my boys. I have a dance business (Ballet, Jazz, Hip Hop) that I run out of my home. We had a studio built onto our house to make this possible! I love what I do and that I can stay home with my children!!! :D

I stay home and take care of/homeschool my 4 kids. While I do get alot of other stuff done, I don't generally get paid for it so it's not considered "work" to most people. I'm in the middle of revamping the website of a national ministry located in Florida. I'm redesigning their site so that it has a new look, is database driven and will be easier for them to update on their own. Before that I finished a 150,000 word novel that I'm still waiting to hear from an agent about.

WAIT A MINUTE NOW!!!!! Being a parent is a full ime job PLUS more!

You're a maid, teacher, cook, mechanic, beautician, doctor, dentist, etc...

When I was job hunting last year for part-time work, under "current occupation" I always put "DOMESTIC ENGINEER".

Parenting is WORK....paycheck or not.

Im a kinda stay at home mom, right now Im still in college (I think its important to have an education even if you dont plan for a carrer) but its a verry small school so they let me cart my 3 month old around for class and my part time job in the library. However once my husband and I are out of school and he finds a church to minister with I plan to teach voice lessons out of our home.

Sheilagh,

That's GREAT that they let you take your child to class and work. I think more companies should do that. The companies that DO allow that seem to do better because they employees are happier that they don't have to worry about childcare or who is taking care of their child.
