to wonder how you can earn £1500 a month running your own business, 30 hours max a week

[mummyneedingahug]

which allows you to do the school run, have the school holidays off and didn't have a massive start up cost??
Is this even possible?

Freelancing/consulting. You may be surprised what skills you have that others would be willing to pay for. I am both dreading my 2 starting school and chomping at the bit to get back to work and feel a proper part of 'grown up' society again! (Not saying that SAHM's aren't part of grown up society, just that I don't feel that I am anymore )

Well I'm a former teacher - but since lots of people have mentioned teaching - tutoring could be an option (post qualification of course).

I used to earn a similar amount teaching fitness classes part time

Set up some kind of preschool and toddler class? Music/arts and crafts/sports/dancing/a language?

My friend earns that in 25 hours as a yoga teacher to the posh

Another is an innovations consultant and earns that bit I don't know what that is!

Growing the business to employ 17 people. I could work 30 hours per week and earn that a month. However, I choose to work many many more hours and earn more. But I get to do school drop off and pick up three days a week,

There's a coupla threads over in the freelancers/self-employed bit where we've been discussing how to earn 1k a month/week/year, and how to start up a business... Come and join us...
