Struggling to stay afloat? Three ways you can earn more money

If the news and recent statistics are anything to go by, if you’re a mum looking for work that gives you the flexibility you need to work around childcare, you’ll have a hard time convincing your employers or finding an new job.

make extra money from homeThe truth is, when it comes to it employers think that there are a few more “risks” associated with employing a mother (taking time off to care for a sick child, having to take time off during school holidays, requests for flexible working, sex discrimination claims when things go wrong etc etc) that they don’t necessarily feel are associated with male employees.

I recently spoke to a mum who has just had her second child and is finding it hard to juggle a full-time job, but can’t afford to reduce her hours or leave because her family need every penny her salary brings in.

If that sounds like your situation, don’t fret – there is always a solution out there that can either help or alleviate some of the pressure.
