I’m so happy you found me! Welcome to Stay At Home Hustles. I’m Holly, a stay-at-home mom of two (1&3) from the East Coast of Canada. I decided recently not to return to my job as an administrator in the education system when my maternity leave ends. Finding childcare in our province is brutal right now and honestly, I’m thrilled with how things turned out – I can hang with my kids everyday. Since making that choice, I’ve been exploring different ways to bring some sort of income to our family. Seriously, even $100 dollars extra a month would be appreciated. I realized one day as I blabbed on to one of my friends about the possibilities and what I was trying that she had never heard of any of these things before. It was at that point “Stay At Home Hustles” was born. Call me a woman obsessed. This was a perfect opportunity to help other moms (or dads or anyone!) who is hoping to make ends meet.
My mission: As a stay-at-home mom, I know how valuable and coveted your “spare” time can be (for me, before starting this project, it was cleaning and squeezing in a show or a few pages of a book before passing out). I will explore various side hustles and share my authentic experiences: the good, the bad, the ugly. Join me on this journey as I dive into the world of work-from-home opportunities, testing their legitimacy so you don’t have to. Let’s navigate the side hustle landscape together, earning, saving, and discovering meaningful ways for moms to flourish. Whether you’re a mom who wants to stay at home with your kids full time or you just need something else to get you a few extra dollars for groceries, there should be something here for everyone.
