Ideas. Ideas Ideas! Help!! I am down to 1 :eek: child in my daycare. Theres a new daycare that opened here. a big one that has preschool and all that stuff that SRS PAYS FOR. :mad: I am wanting to stay home and have an ad in the paper right now but were soooooo broke its pitiful. Im having a garage sale this weekend to maybe bring in some money. Do you have any ideas on something I can do that can make pretty fast money. ANY ideas would be great! I have 35.00 to my name till god knows when! :( I hate being poor!:( :( |
have you tried your own pet sitting business. you can have doggie daycare instead of toddler day care :) |
already have one of those. Shes awesome. I wouldnt do any good! :( |
Well.... Lets brainstorm!! What are your talents?? What do you enjoy doing?? Tell me what your skills are... Tell me about where you live, the area, the people... Have you ever played around on ebay??? I have lots of friends who do it full time... and make a serious income doing it! And no you don't need mony to start doing it! you can start with stuff you have sitting around your house! Do you like to write?? Write a few articles for a Mag you like or a local paper... keep sending them.... they may just use you! They need filler!! They'll pay if they use you... and if your good, they'll ask for more. You never know!! That you can do at home!!! Hmmmmm What else.... Anyone??? |
get a temporary job if you can. |
filled 5 spots today. not worried as much now! I still would like ideas thought to make more money!:D |
That's great!!! How about running errands for the elderly? Put up a notice in a senior complex. Cleaning homes. You can make some good money or cleaning offices at night |
How about finding something large to make a sign for your front yard. Paint a good slogan for daycare on it in bright colors. Something like ( Poohs Palace ) with a big picture of pooh next to it, and be sure to put your prices on the sign so everyone can see that you are less expensive than the other place. Oh! and dont forget to put your phone number on the sign. You could also mabie buy some inexpensive disney lawn ornaments or plastic cartoon signs to attract the kids. Just an idea, I've seen things like this around my area and it seems to work well. They deffinatly attract my kids attention, and if you get their attention, they will get mom and dads attention! |

There has been so many times when I sure could have used someone to hire to assist to help me, but in our area, hired services for the elderly are hard to find. Another suggestion would be to do yard work for the elderly that are still within their own home and wish to remain so but need yard help. What about sitting with an elderly person while the spouse can go shopping, I know this is getting harder for me to do and eventually am going to need this type of service for Jack, I am sure there may be folks in your area that could use this kind of help. There are so many things you can do, in my days when my children were little I wanted to stay home with them....soooooo I took in ironings for awhile, not that I had to work, I know, I know not a fun job, but I liked to be a little bit independent and at that time no one liked doing ironings, and let me tell you I was swamped LOL, at the same time I met a lot of nice people in doing it, some of the folks that I did for was our local chamber of commerce president and his family and the owner of several of the new car dealerships and can you believe to this day I still do Jack and my ironings, guess I am too old to break the habit :) or just plain nuts, with all the newer fabrics out..... I have to still love the ole cottons. Patti |
