I am going to be a new mother anyday now and will not be able to work for a while. I want a job where I can work from home using the internet or typing up things. I have a business degree in business administration and I notice alot of women get jobs working from home doing clerical work, typing up documents and medical billing and I wonder how do you do it? How do I find a work from home job in that area? Any suggestions?

Oh congratulations!! My sister is due March 1st! :) It'll be my first nephew! Athough I have 2 nieces now =P Is yours a boy or a girl? :) Any names yet? I do not have any sites that are like actual jobs, but I have a few websites that I have made some money off of. They are all listed on my blog http://makee-asymoneyonline.blogspot.com/ Another site not on my blog is called QuickRewards. I like them because there is no minimum payout amount, and it is pretty easy to earn money with them. I transferred 5 cents to my paypal account just to see if it works, and it does! :) Check it out! :) http://www.quickrewards.net/?r=!F94VXV35D5IBQ If you have any questions about any of the sites please don't hesitate to ask! Thanks, congratulations again and good luck! :)

I am a stay at home mom and when I was pregnant with my first, I decided to take a medical transcription course. I found one that was online and took a full time course for a total of 9 months. After graduation, i did a bunch of internet search for companies that were hiring and luckily found a site of a bunch of companies! I currently work for a wonderful company that pays me every two weeks. They have plenty of work and you work as a self contractor instead of an employee so you set your own schedule. The more work you do, the more money you make. Of course the pay isnt as great as what you would make outside of home, but this is from the comfort of your own home and if you are computer literate and enjoy typing, this job can be pretty fun. I make about $1500/mth working just mon-fri...but some days i work quite a few hours than others. you dont get paid per hour obviosly as they dont really know when you are working, instead, they pay per line typed. I think the lowest for beginners they start at about $0.05/per line. You can work your way up to $0.12/line which really adds up quick. I would highly recommend taking a medical transcription course if you want to be a stay at home mom. You will make a lot more money then sitting around and doing those measly surveys or referal programs that pay you like $2 a month but claim you can make $2000.

I don't know if this is what you're looking for, but I figured I'd give you the info anyway. I know a lot of parents who have joined and had great success - financially, health-related, family issues. It's just been a good deal for them. We're getting close to our goal of having my husband work from home and it's getting pretty exciting. Check out my profile and see if the links there interest you in any way. I'd love to chat with you a bit about what we do and how it all works, see if it's up your alley. Best wishes for your new baby!!!!

In fact I also hope to find a good job that allows me to work at home. But it seems it is not easy to find. How about try to sell something online? In my opinion, if I can have a good business, then it can be my full time job.

There is a banner at the bottom of my blog. That is a site where you can get freelance jobs. It is free to join and free to bid on the jobs. There is always the option to upgrade to get more bids.

probably the easiest is chacha.com if your good with searching. Its more of a small cash earner rather than a full time job. You just have to register and take a test then go through training, and they pay you by search. Basically, its a personalized search so people would ask you questions through chat and you would filter the answers. Let me know how it goes, but remember this is only for a little extra chash and I dont think it would substitute a full time job.
