I think alot of mom's should try babysitting to earn more income if you are trying to stay at home and work at the same time. I have tried a ton of at home jobs and none of them were successful but I did find that babysitting is easy and the extra income is amazing! Also I think if you are staying at home maybe try to do some collage classes? I feel as it is the best time to do so if you chose to go down that route. #momlifechats

I've thought about babysitting ☺️ Was the process to start babysitting difficult to get into?

I just posed in my selling sites on facebook there are a ton of people looking for babysitters. Very easy process. @_mommytobabyc

@erikasmiles123, Aww nice idea! ☺️ There isn't a process you have to do like becoming certified to babysit?

Not really unless you take a different route. But I usually find kid's to babysit on fb sites. Of course some do a background check and what not @_mommytobabyc

@erikasmiles123, I wouldn't mind doing all of that just so the people know I'm good & they will feel better about their kids being in a safe environment. I just don't know where to go about that. How many kids did you babysit & did you babysit everyday of the week?

I know there are like 50 where I am from. Lol but try posting in there that you are looking for kids to babysit. @_mommytobabyc

@erikasmiles123, Lol geez that's nice! I don't see that many in my area. So I just stick to the baby/toddler one. So that's all you did, was just post on those groups that you are a babysitter looking to babysit? ☺️

Yes and I got a lot of people interested! @_mommytobabyc

@erikasmiles123, Nice idea!! ☺️ Sounds very easy to get into it that way. How many days a week did you babysit?

I have watched a couple kids. So all different the main one is 3-4 days a week. @_mommytobabyc

Mama Vee 🌻

@erikasmiles123, Aww that's good ☺️ 3-4 days a week babysitting is good! Did you charge by the hour?

I actually did $20 a day lol. @_mommytobabyc

@erikasmiles123, Oh whoa girl no wonder you got a lot of people! Daycare is so expensive! I was trying to think of a price myself. That's really good ☺️

But I do have to say that when I charged $20 I felt like it wasn't worth it. I would even feel better if it was $25. 😂 I never asked a specific price I asked them what they could pay first some will go high some will go low. @_mommytobabyc

@erikasmiles123, $25 is not so bad either. So you charged $20 per child, per day? That's really nice that you made it easy for them so they could afford it. That's how you get more people interested when the prices are right.

Let me rant to you ladies real quick.

Let me rant to you ladies real quick. I am so tired of peoples reactions to “what do you plan on doing after the baby?” Personally I plan on staying home and raising my daughter🤷🏼 ♀ the reactions I get piss me off! “You’ll have a lot of time on your hands” “ 3 years is a long time to not do school or work” This may be my first child but I do not down play stay at home moms! THAT IS A JOB!

Locking your doors We are having a discussion on one of my birth boards from my older kids about locking doors and security alarms. There are many of us (me included) who do not lock our doors at home (I actually don't even have a deadbolt on my house and we don't lock it when we leave either), and others who think that's totally weird. So what do you do? Do you lock your doors? Do you think it's weird that people don't?
